Treasurer

The new Cook County Treasurer winner is Melissa Conyears-Ervin, who beat out Ald. Ameya Pawar with 60 percent and 281,137 votes.

Rep. Jesus "Chuy" Garcia noted Pawar's support of a higher minimum wage and paid sick leave in the Chicago City Council as signs of his progressive chops that Garcia feels the city needs in its next treasurer.
