Clown City Update 🤡
The following video showed up in our Telegram feed. While the reported address of Cermak and Canalport appears to be correct we don’t know when this occured. Currently there are no deaths listed in the Cook County Medical Examier’s database around this address. The usual graphic warnings apply.
The Race for Mayor
Speaking of graphic warnings, polls show Lori somehow still has a chance. These polls probably don’t mean much, but it’s all we could find. We’re confident that no one will win outright and whoever does end up winning the whole thing will pull about 20% of the eligible voter base.
A new voter opinion survey reported exclusively by FOX 32 Chicago News finds Mayor Lori Lightfoot and Paul Vallas in a statistical tie, with Congressman Chuy Garcia falling from his previous front runner status to third place.
If no candidate receives 50% plus one vote on Feb. 28, the top two finishers compete in a runoff election Apr. 4.
…
Corbett told FOX 32 Chicago News the Garcia campaign may have thought they could coast into the runoff. (full story)
That last line is probably true. Chuy likely thought (or still thinks) he could pull a Rahm and just waltz into the Mayor’s office on the fifth floor of City Hall. Who’s the retarded dipshit now?
