State Republican Rep. Deanne Mazzochi was slightly ahead of Democratic challenger Jennifer Zordani by 17,359 to 16,440 votes in Tuesday's election for the 47th District with 16.7% of precincts counted.
Mazzochi of Elmhurst is an attorney and former College of DuPage board member elected to her first term in 2018 and Zordani is a financial services attorney from Clarendon Hills.
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused unprecedented numbers of voters to request mail-in ballots that may also delay final results.
Over 50,500 DuPage County mail-in ballots were outstanding as of Wednesday.
