Election Day in Chicago
Tuesday, 27 February 2007 by Jacob TomawIf you live in the Second City and have not voted yet, I encourage you to do so. I also strongly encourage you to make an informed choice. In Chicago an informed choice is anything but a vote for Richard Daley or your current Alderman. If you want more than my word, read about the Mayoral election and the Aldermanic election.
Remember, Chicago is a Democracy. Stop acting like a battered wife.
If we elect a bum worse than the one we threw out, we can vote for someone else four years later. Democracy’s not that complicated. If we don’t start behaving like we live in one, we’ll have no one to blame but ourselves for the consequences.
