She’s delusional. She has only herself to blame. Maybe she had had a few too many of those conciliatory Modelo’s before talking to the press… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading on Vallas, he has a lot of ties to the establishment and a huge war chest. and keeps talking about fighting crime. Johnson seemed like he surged. but no idea why. what makes his platform different from the rest? hard to find much info on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like most that have the same convictions as her always looking to lay blame some where else rather than growing a set & taking the blame for their own actions a big reason why things are the way they are because of those like her . But of course that's just me ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite i'm not in line with the left or who ever it is that thinks it's okay for both male & female to use the same rest room & you would think of something quite as disgusting as that .

Johnson seemed like he surged. but no idea why. what makes his platform different from the rest? hard to find much info on him Vallas is a traditional establishment guy who has tacked to the right to carve his lane in the election. His endorsements largely come from those that endorse republicans (like the FOP) though Vallas has himself traditionally been a Dem. Vallas’s support has come from the southwest and northwest white conservative areas of the city. Johnson is a Cook County Commissioner, so he has experience with local government administration. His platform is fairly progressive and he’s big on fixing the homelessness problem. He actually was a big supporter of a local non-profit that worked to help the homeless whose associate board I used to sit on. However, he has some controversial proposals like a 3% tax on incomes over $100k and a business headcount tax for people who work in the city (and thus benefit from its infrastructure) but live in the suburbs. Johnson’s support has come from the white progressive / liberal areas in the north. The runoff will be decided by turnout and who can court the west and south side areas that supported Lightfoot, Chuy, and Willie Wilson: Here’s another breakdown of the vote: Edited March 1, 2023 by ChiGoose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given Vallas’s move to the right, I would think that Johnson has a stronger chance at picking up those votes even though they aren’t progressive areas. Lightfoot was somehow both arrogant and incompetent. Not a great combination. She didn’t play nice with anyone and just assumed everyone would do what she wanted while she yelled at them and berated them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably all at once for the trifect victim card. Never her fault though The mayor broke one cardinal rule of successful liberal mayoring—-she let the crime brush up against the liberals—-personally, by extension, or by incursion into their neighborhoods. With that, she gotta go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
