Paul Vallas has added another L to his ever growing collection of L’s.
This is the lawsuit where Vallas paid China Enyia ~$700,000 that Vallas claimed was unauthorized after he lost, and his campaign checks to workers started bouncing.

Random update amid everything else, but I need y'all to know that Paul Vallas' attorney quit on him last month, citing "Irreconcilable differences and disputes...between Vallas & Laduzinsky making Laduzinsky’s continued representation of Vallas impossible."

It's been a while since I revisited the 2019 mayoral election, and I kinda forgot how crazy the first round was. Nine different candidates won at least one precinct! Willie Wilson won the most precincts, but only came in 4th. Amara Enyia got more votes than Joyce and Chico but only won 8 precincts.

In May 2023 @thetriibe.com wrote about Vallas' various failed attempts to influence Black voters, which included payments of >$700k to Enyia.
Vallas' campaign account balance is $0. Vallas made news shortly after losing the election when campaign workers reported that his checks bounced.

Analysis: Vallas flooded Black Chicago with campaign cash, but Black voters didn’t follow • The TRiiBE
The Vallas campaign spent heavily in wards on the South and West Sides; Johnson won all of them.
