LOGAN SQUARE — A slate of neighborhood debates set for Feb. 9 aims to provide complete coverage of Hermosa by featuring all 13 candidates running to serve the neighborhood and surrounding area.
The Monday night discussions start at 6:30 p.m. at 4111 W. Armitage Ave. and will include ward candidates covering nearly the entirety of Logan Square and Humboldt Park, as Hermosa itself is split into four wards that run into surrounding neighborhoods.
“We are uniting all four wards in Hermosa, west of Pulaski, by bringing all 13 candidates running in Hermosa together for one night,” reads an announcement for the aldermanic discussions.
All 13 candidates are confirmed for attendance in the following races:
26th Ward
• Adam Corona
• Juanita Irizarry
• Ald. Roberto Maldonado
31st Ward
• Irma Cornier
• Milly Santiago
• Sean Starr
• Ald. Ray Suarez
35th Ward
• Ald. Rey Colon
• Carlos Rosa
36th Ward
• Omar Aquino
• Gilbert Villegas
• Christopher Vittorio
• Alonso Zaragoza
Feb. 9 is also the first day for early voting at polling places designated by the Chicago Board of Election Commissioners. Early voting will be hosted at polling stations from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays, 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Saturdays and 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. on Sundays.
