CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) - The Chicago Mayoral Election is now just over a month away, and the candidates to replace Mayor Rahm Emanuel are making the final push for every vote.

FOX 32 is at the center of it all, and will broadcast the Chicago Mayoral Forum live at 6 p.m. from the Union League Club on February 7.

The top 5 candidates from a Lincoln Forum poll will take part in the event, which will be moderated by Fox 32 Political Editor Mike Flannery.

Those candidates are Toni Preckwinkle, Paul Vallas, Gery Chico, Willie Wilson, and Susana Mendoza. Bill Daley dropped out to attend a Chicago Plumbers Local 130 event and was replaced by Vallas for the forum.
