It would be more accurate if you said, Hey, Chicago, keep putting those dems in office.
Chicago is certainly a huge part of the equation. However, the downstate Democrats, from more or less rural areas like my hometown of Clinton, have culpability, too. The modern Democratic party is the idealogical anti-thesis of these people (blood lust support for abortion, seizure of guns, radical homosexual agenda, etc.) And yet they continued to vote for The Party of Truman - not realizing old Harry S. had been dead for decades. As a result, we’ve got a state firmly in the hands of socialists like Emil Jones, Michael Madigan and Rahm Emanuel.
