Write-in candidates
These names are not printed on the ballot. To vote for one, write the name in the blank write-in space for that office and fill in the oval (on a touchscreen, follow the write-in steps on screen). Votes count only for write-ins who filed a declaration. The Chicago Board of Elections does not post those names, so this list comes from the Cook County Clerk's list and campaign announcements; election judges at your polling place have the official one.
- Frank Rowder (Independent, Write-in): Declared write-in candidate; the name is not printed on the ballot. No platform or campaign website found.
