The Chicago mayoral election of 1883 saw Democratic incumbent Carter Harrison Sr. defeat Republican Eugene Cary by a double-digit margin. The election took place on April 3, 1883.[1][2]

By winning the 1883 election, Harrison became the second mayor in Chicago history to be elected to a third term (after only Francis Cornwall Sherman), and the first to be elected to a third consecutive term.

By the day of the election, Harrison was already the second-longest serving mayor in the city's history, and was only roughly a month shy of surpassing Monroe Heath as the longest serving mayor.

Harrison's 15% margin of victory was the greatest in all of his campaigns for mayor.[3]

Campaign

A key issue of the election was the high licensing fees in the city.[4]

During the campaign, many reformers, newspapers, and business interests coalesced their support behind a Citizen's Ticket that supported Republican nominee Eugene Cary for mayor. [5]
