Key suburban political races to watch, from Dolton to Arlington Heights

CICERO, Ill. - Early voting has begun in the suburbs for the February 25 primary election and the April 1 general election.

That includes west suburban Berwyn and Cicero—where politics are heating up.

Tensions are rising as Cicero town presidential candidate Esteban Rodriguez is calling on the attorney general and state’s attorney to investigate alleged election interference by longtime incumbent Larry Dominick.

On Friday, FOX 32 reported that the front windows of Esteban Rodriguez's home and campaign headquarters were smashed in separate incidents.

Video obtained by FOX 32’s Paris Schutz shows a suspect throwing a large brick through the window of Rodriguez's house.

I get bombarded by their flyers and they somehow got my phone number called "Berwyn Strong" and the whole business sounds trumpian and strong arm. They used Mayor Brandon Johnson in a message to sound scary. So I am voting for the other person Rafael Ravila. I don't want to sound racist, but I wonder if Mexican Americans taking over Berwyn politics is going to go to the right instead of liberal
