Emanuel made the announcement at a City Hall press conference that he will not seek reelection at the end of his term. The mayoral election will take place on Feb. 26, 2019.

"Today, the time has come to make another tough choice. As much as I love this job, and will always love this city and its residents, I've decided not to seek reelection," he said.

Big Bill Thompson was lily white compared to the rats that followed him. Chicago is filled with public works projects that Bill the Builder constructed that are still in good repair.

The date is by design: the Machine likes elections conducted during the dead of winter. Low voter turn-outs favor the Machine candidates over challengers.

I’m still wondering if Rahm paid his Illinois taxes due when the judge declared he was eligible to run for mayor because he could live in DC and Chicago at the same time -

Maybe ‘the resistance’ wants Rahm Emanuel as President...

Look at all the murder and horror he's brought to Chicago. Rahm could do the same for the United States. Liberals would be happy if all of us in flyover started killing ourselves again. Our deaths and despair would make liberal ‘elites’ feel even more superior. The deep state would be dancing on our graves...

Think of it - the whole country as crappy a hellhole as Chicago... a true liberal wet dream.
