The Chicago Teachers Union official and educator who campaigned on a platform that Pope was nothing more than a lackey for Mayor Rahm Emanuel may well have won!
OF COURSE, THERE’S also absentee ballots that may, or may not, change the vote margin. And the loser may well demand a recount, what with how close it is.
Although
Garza gathered Wednesday night with supporters at Viveros, 9500 S. Avenue L, for
what seems to be as close to a victory party as one can have without tempting
fate.
“Our
campaign will remain vigilant in observing the process by which (absentee
ballots) are handled and counted, so the voice of the people is not stolen,”
Garza said.
As
for the 16th Ward, Toni Foulkes has a 112-vote lead over Stephanie Coleman,
Chris Taliaferro has a 500-vote lead over 29th Ward Alderman Deborah
Graham and 43rd Ward Alderman Caroline Vickrey has a six-vote lead
over Michele Smith. All with all precincts counted, the city Elections Board says.
SO
IS ELECTION Day over? It depends on who you ask.
The ultimate “expert” on this issue may well be actor John Belushi’s “Blutto
Blutarsky” character from “Animal House” when he screamed, “Did you say ‘over?’
Nothing is over until we decide it is!”
