Who's With Who?

I attempted to figure out which aldermen were with which mayoral candidate, either through formal endorsements, obvious statements of preference, or other observable clues. In some cases, I couldn't make a determination. Why does this matter? Think committee chairmanships, coalitions, voting blocs and so on.

Here it is, by ward. Where an incumbent was ousted in February, I've named the incoming alderman. Where runoffs are occurring today, I've done my best to tab each candidate with their stated choice.

If I've gotten any of these wrong, or you can fill in any missing gaps, let me know.
