Just cast my vote for the BIG D!  Lets hope we get a Daley/Burke two-fer tonight - can’t let Chicago go the way of Detroit.
Why Daley? You could easily of voted for Gerry Chico or Garry McCarthy or Susana Meldoza

McCarthy has absolutely no chance.  Chico or Mendoza would be acceptable but why go for that when you have a legend on the ballot.
I was meming with McCarthy.

Any fault the city has is in part due to the corrupt Daley clan. A Rahm-lite candidate would be disastrous for the city considering the emigration of those with the means to the suburbs and sun belt, like in the aftermath of the Teacher Strike a few years ago.

The faults Chicago has would be much, much worse without the Daley/Rahm leadership over the past decades.  They’ve kept the city a place where business actually wants to invest in.

Lol gross. I had hope when you said you were considering Lightfoot. The neighborhoods that we live in may have benefited from Daley/Rahm leadership, but most of the city has not.

There might be record low turout accorind to the Trib.  Pretty pathetic considering some of the Daley elections were barely even contested.

Low turnout probably because of:

1) Cold February Midwest weather

Should Chicago change the date to warmer days?

2) Apathy

What difference does it make? My vote doesn't count or matter. It's a Democratic city/council anyway.

3) Trump suck oxygen from society

Honestly I am more interested in seeing if Chicago's lone Republican on the city council survives this election.

To help incumbents. The machine will get its people out to vote no matter what.

Burke is over 50% with over 35% in. This city can be such a joke.
