Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
Your July 13 editorial “A prince of the city,” about Jesse Jackson Jr. and his relationship with Chicago, made me laugh. The fact is, in Chicago, a Democratic candidate could be deceased and would still get re-elected. In Junior’s case, I can see him getting re-elected, indicted, resigning and then his Democratic successor would be appointed by the powers-that-be.
I am sure that there is no need to worry about a Republican ever being elected in Junior’s district.
