1865 Chicago mayoral election
In the Chicago mayoral election of 1865John Blake Rice defeated Democratic incumbent Francis Cornwall Sherman by a landslide 33% margin of victory.
The election was held on April 18, only four days after the assassination of Abraham Lincoln .[1] [2]
Originally, Democrat Leonard Rothgerber had been one of the candidates running.[2] [2] [2] [3] [2]
While he remained on the ballot, Sherman also all-but-withdrew from the race as well in the aftermath of Lincoln's assassination.[4]
Rice was a "Reform" Republican.[5]
This was the last of four mayoral elections that Chicago held during the course of the American Civil War .
