    Can’t speak for the voting populace. Chicago politics are a freakin’ travesty and have been for as long as I’ve been alive. It’s a Blue city and pretty decent on many other political issues, but the PD is ridiculously corrupt and racist, and they’ve had their fingers on political levers for ages.

      That’s not entirely accurate. The entire Illinois political system is a travesty. Well, unless you’re a bagman by trade, then it’s a permanent boom town.
