Ald. Greg Mitchell (7) is a former financial analyst and has served on the City Council since 2015, when he defeated incumbent Ald. Natashia Holmes.

Though he has kept a fairly low profile on the council and largely avoided the press and public statements, he has sided with Mayor Lori Lightfoot on recent proposals such as the seizure of the assets of gang members and the expansion of a curfew for city youth, according to the Reader.

Mitchell initially faced two challengers for his seat this cycle, but he is now running unopposed after both candidates, Jocilyn Floyd and Anthony “Tony” Blair, were removed from the ballot.
