It’s been a week, but the election is not over yet. As of this recording, just over 2000 votes separate the candidates for Cook County State’s Attorney. The race between Eileen O’Neill Burke and Clayton Harris III remains too close to call as more mail-in ballots are counted. Executive producer Simone Alicea and host Jacoby Cochran discuss how both candidates have responded to the tightening race. Plus, we look at Mayor Johnson’s latest funding pushes and budget-friendly honeymoon options near Chicago.
