This is Side Two

This page is the arena for this office, this cycle. Unique teaching for the job lives on the office twin.

It is not a campaign. Names belong on the official sample ballot.

When

  • Next regular Mayor election: April 2027 (Illinois consolidated election — confirm leftover dates with the Sangamon County Clerk)
  • Not 2026. Springfield last elected a Mayor in April 2023 for a four-year term.

This is not a Governor race. Illinois’s 2026 Governor race is Governor · 2026.

Who is on the ballot

Do not take names from a news comment or a text thread.

  1. Official candidate list / sample ballot — springfield.il.us
  2. Sangamon County Clerk
  3. Current Mayor of record — springfield.il.us
  4. Registration — official Illinois voter registration

If a site and the official sample ballot disagree, the sample ballot wins.
