If you want to know who’s going to be Mayor watch Ald. Ed Burke.

Alderman Edward Burke was elected in 1969. He chairs the City’s Finance Committee. He slates all the Cook County judges. Burke is de facto head of the Judicial Branch of Chicago’s government.

That’s legislative, financial and judicial clout.
