No surprise here. Preckwinkle Cook County board President and County Dem chair had a soda tax passed which was dropped and hated by everybody. The Chicago mayoral race used to be a partisan one which was Republican vs Democrat. But changed into being so called non partisan election. During this primary there were 14 candidates running for mayor with Lightfoot and Preckwinkle the top two from a 35% voter turnout. This turnout was a reported 31%.

Democracy can only be as good as the, er, demos (Gk: people).

When America headed up its constitution with We The People, it threw the dice on its future.

There hasn’t been a Republican mayoral candidate in Chicago for the last 25 years at least.

What does the race or gender have to do with being mayor of Chicago?Nothing that I can see.

All so see is another Rat running another defective city in a nation full of Rat run defective cities.

Funny how people who demand tolerance for who they are, are intolerant of who others are.

Identity politics over leadership. That’s the current commie party.

Gordon Lightfoot would have been a better choice.

It’s happening all across the cities. They’re not making arrests on the small crimes like prostitution, shoplifting, etc. anymore.
