Wilson jumped into the 2023 mayoral race on April 11 with a $Five million contribution to himself and a burst of goodwill generated by means of his gas giveaways.

Three years ago, Wilson received 13 of 18 Black wards, completing fourth overall with 10.6% of the vote. In the runoff, Lori Lightfoot received all of the ones wards – and all 50 wards citywide -after Wilson counseled her over County Board President Toni Preckwinkle.

Wilson said Illinois drivers pay the second one best taxes on the pump in the nation.
