He gave up the rights to the majority of them, with the exception of those that would benefit his wife’s district and a handful of candidates he had endorsed. Jackson, Jr. invested around US$200,000 for his wife’s campaign to purchase billboards, mailers and phone banks along with a campaign manager and other staffers who were professional. William Beavers was unimpressed with the expense and made his staff remind the voters that Jackson didn’t reside in the Ward and neither did his daughter. William Beavers attempted to make Jackson’s Washington residence a point of contention and there was a lot of some mudslinging among the Beavers as well as the Jacksons.

Jackson’s aldermanic career began inauspiciously when she complained to the Chicago Sun-Times, one of Chicago’s major daily newspapers, that she was caught off-guard by the need to pay office start-up expenses up front. This provided fodder for a columnist in the Chicago Tribune, the other major daily, and anonymous on-line commenters on the Chicago Sun-Times web site made light of the issue. At the time, Jackson was considered by one local political writer as the most closely watched of the nine newly elected aldermen that were sworn in on May 21, 2007 and by another as the “star” of the incoming class of nine freshman aldermen.
In 2006, William Beavers announced that he would resign his 7th ward aldermanic seat to pursue the Cook County Board seat being vacated by John Stroger, after Stroger was forced to resign following a stroke. Beavers requested that Mayor Daley appoint his daughter to replace him, in order for her to have the incumbency advantage in the February 27, 2007 municipal elections. The deal also allowed for Todd Stroger to replace his father John as the president of the County Board and Beavers to surrender his ward seat after presiding over Mayor Daley’s 2007 City Council budget hearings. In July 2007, when it first became public that Sandi Jackson was considering running for the 7th ward alderman seat, which would disrupt all the backroom dealings between the Strogers and the Beavers with Daley’s approval, Jackson, Jr. encouraged her to run. In the November 2006 elections, William Beavers won the County Board seat while Stroger won the County Board President’s office that had been part of the dealings. On December 5, 2006, Jackson officially filed paperwork with state election officials. On December 12, Mayor Daley appointed Darcel Beavers to succeed her father until the Spring municipal elections. Then, on December 18, which is the filing deadline for petitions, Jackson filed 5,000 petition signatures to run for alderman.
