News in brief: Ald. David Moore launches bid for Secretary of State
- MOORE ENTERS SOS RACE — Chicago Ald. David Moore (17) became the latest candidate to enter the race for Secretary of State over the weekend. Moore, who has served on the City Council since 2015, announced his candidacy late Friday. An Englewood resident, Moore joins former state Treasurer Alexi Giannoulias, Chicago Clerk Anna Valencia, Sen. Michael Hastings (D-Tinley Park) and Ald. Pat Dowell (3) in vying for the Democratic Party’s nomination to succeed retiring Secretary of State Jesse White. As he heads into the race, Moore is at a significant disadvantage in terms finances. His latest campaign finance disclosures indicate he has nearly $74,000 available to spend. Giannoulias leads the way with more than $2.1 million in his campaign coffers. (Joel Ebert)
