Chicago Democratic Mayor Lori Lightfoot say she “misspoke” in telling would-be voters they should “stay home” instead of going to the polls next week to cast ballots for her opponents in the city’s mayoral election.

Lightfoot is in a three-way tie for the lead with challengers Congressman Jesus “Chuy” Garcia and Paul Vallas, in an eight-person race with Election Day on Feb. 28.

The embattled first-term mayor told attendees at campaign event this past weekend a vote for “somebody not named Lightfoot” is a vote for Garcia or Vallas.”

The race is expected to go a runoff between the top-two finishers.

“If you want them controlling your fate and your destiny, then stay home. Then don’t vote,” Lightfoot also reportedly said at the event, on Chicago’s South Side.
