Burn it all down

Mr. Johnson seeking expanded social programs and new taxes...

Let the exodus begin ...

Quality of people IS quality of life

[Drew68]

Insane Chicago is going to elect the guy who ran to the left of Beetlejuice.

Or perhaps, entirely predictable.

Brace for a massive corporate evacuation from Chicongo, eclipsing the one already taking place.

[napscoordinator]

They’re both Democrats. Ones just less crazy.

[napscoordinator]

Oops. Got me. We’re losing elections all over tonight.

[devane617]

Stunned at the amount of dumb.

[devane617]

Scarry

Which is the “less crazy” of the two?

[11th_VA]

Brandon Johnson wins the Chicago mayoral race in Illinois. - Race called by The Associated Press.

Vallles who lost is somewhat of a moderate guy. The guy who won literally makes AOC look like Pat Buchanan I’m not joking.

[Senormechanico]

Brandon probably won because of all the dummies who had been exposed to all the “Let’s Go Brandon!” signs and flags.
They thought, “I’m going to vote for the one everybody likes, BRANDON !!”

Stupidity knows no bounds...

[llevrok]

We’re losing elections all over tonight.

makes one "appreciate" how deep and wide the cultural brain washing is.

[vpintheak]

These retards deserve what they get. If I never set foot in Chicongo again, it will be too soon.

[cowboyusa]

Red States are getting Redder. Blue States Bluer.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Brandon Johnson makes Mayor Beetlejuice look like Attila the Hun.

Congrats, Chicago. Just when I thought you couldn’t go more retard, you hit it out of the park.

[fieldmarshaldj]

It’s not who votes, it’s who counts the votes. Think any of these are honest elections in Demonrat/Derp State locales ?

[fieldmarshaldj]

And the Commie Reds keep getting Commier and Redder.

>> Chicago Mayor Runoff Election Results [Democrat leads] <<

Given that BOTH candidates in the runoff were lifelong, card-carrying Democrats (as were ALL the candidates in the first round election, as well), I'm SHOCKED to learn that a "Democrat leads"

You mean to tell me Chicagoans didn't cast write-in votes en masse for a random, unknown Republican?

Stunning outcome! In other astonishing news, it appears the front runner to be the next Prime Minster of Saudi Arabia is a member of the Saudi royal family.
