They’ll keep counting bags of so-called mail-in ballots until Harris wins.

This stinks. Election outcome should be announced morning after election. Voting should be in-person, with validated voter id, address confirmation.

It’s curious how independent voters, and republican party voters, get delisted so quickly by Chicago’s administration of voter-registration, and yet its list of eligible registered voters contain so many many dead people who have Cook County death certifcates on-file.

The results of the election will be announced in July. Public employees counting votes is an arduous task. Votes for the democrat chosen candidate will trickle in until the chosen one wins.

So where did you get your stellar education that falsely makes you believe that you’re superior to a CPS graduate?

Just a few more days to find the votes they need. This is sickening.

Mark Glennon on AM560’s Morning Answer: Chicago pension buyout plan mostly shifts debt rather than eliminating it, property tax surge doubles inflation over three decades

Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.
