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.

Why? He’s doing such a bang-up job. About 1,000 people have been "banged" up from Memorial day through Labor Day.

It means the debt bomb in Chicago is ready to explode and Rham doesn’t want to be hit with the shrapnel.

I love some of the nicknames SCC has for Rahm: “Tiny Dancer” and “9.5 Digit Midget”.

He’s been saying that for months. Saying it AGAIN today means he wanted to get his name in the headlines AGAIN.

It means the voters of Chicago will elect someone at least as stupid as Emanual. Or...maybe they will get what they really want. A democRAT Socialist.

Personally, I’m shocked. He’s done such a fine job of culling the herd.

he’s utterly incompetent, but also, chicago is utterly ungovernable.
burn it down. start from scratch. it’s your only hope.
To: rdl6989
It means he has lost the black vote. Even they are fed up with his inability to stop the slaughter.

“Why? He’s doing such a bang-up job.”
ROTFLMAO!! Even if you didn’t intend the pun, it’s right on target, given what Chicago’s blacks on the south and est sides are doing to each other every day.
To: rbg81
If they keep shooting each other, they might come to their senses. Or, they might demand more gun laws and higher taxes. Heads or tails.
