TheChicago mayoral election of 1995 resulted in the re-election ofDemocratic Party nominee incumbentRichard M. Daley over independent candidateRoland Burris, with 359,466 votes to Burris's 217,024. Daley won 60.1% of the total vote, winning by a landslide 24-point margin. TheRepublican candidate,Raymond Wardingley, fared poorly with only 2.8% of the vote. A fourth-place candidate,Harold Washington Party nominee Lawrence Redmond, won 0.9% of the votes.[2]

This was the last election for Mayor of Chicago where candidates ran under party labels, as a state law was enacted later in 1995 making all municipal offices in the state non-partisan.[3]

TheDemocratic Party,Republican Party, and theHarold Washington Party all heldprimary elections for their nominations. However, only the Democratic Party's primary saw a sizeable number of voters participate. Daley easily defeatedMetropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago Commissioner Joseph E. Gardiner by a margin of more that 30 points. Wardingley, aperennial candidate andclown, very narrowly won the Republican nomination among a weak field of contenders. Redmond was unopposed for the Harold Washington Party primary.

Campaign

[edit]

Daley easily defeated two challengers in the primary.

Daley's main challenge came fromMetropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago commissioner Joseph E. Gardner. Gardner had been a high-ranking member ofHarold Washington's mayoral administration and an executive atPUSH.[4]By 1995, Sheila A. Jones had become aperennial competitor in the Democratic mayoral primary.

As was the case in all of his reelection campaigns, Daley did not attend any debates.[6]

Daley vastly out-raised his opponents in campaign funds.[7]

Independent candidacy of Roland Burris

[edit]

Roland Burris ran as an independent.[21] When first approached by black activists about running for mayor, Burris had declined. He ultimately ran, proclaiming to have been drafted by “the people”.[22] By the time he decided to run, Joseph Gardner had already challenged Daley in the Democratic primary. Not wanting to run against Gardner and split the black vote in the primary, Burris decided he would run in the general election as an independent candidate.[22]

General election

[edit]

Daley did not attend any debates.[6] Burris complained of a lack of media coverage on his candidacy.[22] Late into the campaign, Burris issued demands for Daley to address corruption and misconduct by aviation employees, especially Dominic Longo, the manager of vehicle operations at O’Hare. The airport had recently suffered a number of accidents caused by inexperienced runway crew leadership. Burris also alleged that Longo has coerced airport employees into making donations to the Daley campaign in order to keep their jobs.[23] Daley's campaign spent $3 million in the election. Burris spent $250,000.[24]
