The Chicago Mayoral Election of 1989 saw the return of the Daley family to the office of mayor. The elections was held two years early because of the Death of Harold Washington early in the term. Eugene Sawyer had been appointed Mayor by the City Council to serve until the special election midway through the term. Richard M. Daley was elected over the nominee of the newly formed Harold Washington Party, Alderman Timothy Evans, and the Republican nominee, Ed Vrdolyak.^[1]
