The reality is she values LGBT lives more than black lives.

If her main opposition is the Hispanic alderman, the blacks will vote for her.

I always point out that in 2019, there was a large field of candidates running, almost all of them better than Lightfoot. She is what you get when identity politics (black, female, lesbian) combines with abysmally-low voter turnout. Having a one-party system doesn’t help, either. Only 33% of voters bothered to vote in the run-off election. She won around 60% of that. About 19% of eligible voters put this mess in office.

"Chicago has a massacre every weekend."

Not to be gruesome or anything, but, why do they wait 'til the weekend??

They do not wait until the weekends. The killing goes on all the time. It is the communist journalists that know Monday morning is prime click bait time and if it bleeds, it leads.

So there ya have it.

Many will. But not enough for her to win. She is utterly despised.

That’s very true. I doubt seriously she will win re-election.


I don’t agree. They don’t value any life. They are all about themselves and will turn on others on a dime.

There is much evidence.

“I don’t agree. They don’t value any life. They are all about themselves and will turn on others on a dime.”

She’ll be running against an hispanic, and Chicago’s hispanic community is very large.

From Wikipedia:

According to 2019 US Census Bureau American Community Survey one-year estimates (which is conducted annually for cities over 65,000 via sampling), the population of Chicago, Illinois was 50.8% White (33.5% Non-Hispanic White and 17.3% Hispanic White), 29.0% Black or African American, 7.0% Asian, 0.4% Native American and Alaskan Native, 0.1% Pacific Islander, 9.6% Some Other Race, and 3.2% from two or more races.[3] The White population continues to remain the largest racial category as Hispanics in Chicago primarily identify as White (60.2%) with others identifying as Other Race (32.5%), Multiracial (3.9%), Black (1.8%), American Indian and Alaskan Native (1.0%), Asian (0.5%), and Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (0.1%).[3] By ethnicity, 28.8% of the total population is Hispanic-Latino (of any race) and 71.2% is Non-Hispanic (of any race). If treated as a separate category, Hispanics are the largest minority group in Chicago, Illinois.[3]
