It honestly makes practical sense for Emanuel to remain on the ballot.

(The votes have already been counted.)

True.

It would cost a LOT of Illinois tax-payer dollars to re-fix the election with a ‘second choice’ candidate, re-print all those ballots, and ‘re-cast’ all those votes.

Now they do not have to worry about receiving second-rate corruption from a last-minute ‘candidate’ who has not been thoroughly ‘vetted’ by the ‘right people’ and who might even end up NOT being able to be fully controlled while in office.

The Illinois Supreme Court has done the fiscally AND politically responsible thing, here...

;-)
