Chicago Mayor also runs to the also runs
Wednesday, March 1st, 2023Chicago mayoral election results. The incumbent losrs, and she makes the phone call to presumably both the candidates who beat her out for the run off, but the newspaper of Chicago reports at least one of them.
Vallas waited until Lightfoot’s concession call and speech before claiming his place in the runoff. When he did take the podium, he asked the crowd to give the outgoing mayor a round of applause for her service and courage.
I suppose the problem with this game I am thinking about is that a brief look see the other candidates beyond this are … Respectable enough not kooks … The Natural Law Party sat this one out… So there is no amused entertainment value in the thought experiment. But really. Given this was taken to have four candidates jostling for a shot. The other five candidates running… Did they call the two candidates to concede, and if they had would the winning candidates have to short change them because they really just need to hear from Lightfoot?
“Look, Roderick. You got .4 percent of the vote. Go away.”
