Rita Ali is officially Peoria s Mayor-elect, weeks after Election night came and passed. The Peoria County Election Commission certified the results of the tight contest on Wednesday. Ali finished just 43 votes ahead of opponent Jim Montelongo. Ali is the first woman and first African American to become Peoria s mayor in the city s history. Ali and other newly elected or re-elected officials will be sworn in on May 4. “I think after 170 years and 54 mayors, becoming the first woman and the first person of color, African American, I think it speaks well of Peoria’s choice, Peoria’s direction, being open to diversity and embracing diversity,” she said to WCBU during an interview Tuesday evening. “Diversity plays very well in terms of progress for cities.”
