Former Des Plaines City Clerk Gloria Ludwig s write-in campaign to unseat 1st Ward Alderman Mark Lysakowski appears to have come up short.
Now that nearly all of Cook County s mail-in ballots have been counted, unofficial results from the April 6 election showed Lysakowski ahead 370 votes to 264 votes.
The deadline for mail-in ballots to arrive at the Cook County clerk s office is Tuesday afternoon.
Lysakowski was the only 1st Ward candidate on the ballot. The apparent victory gives him a second 4-year term on the city council.
On Tuesday, Lysakowski said he expected the race would be close but was confident he d win based on conversations with 1st Ward voters.
