Title: Up To 5 Democrat(ic) Socialists Could Be Joining Chicago City Council

Five members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) found election success last Tuesday in Chicago and could join the city council in April.

Trump Slams Democrats For Voting Against Bill To 'Prevent The Killing Of Newborn Infant Children'

Two candidates, Ald. Carlos Ramirez-Rosa and Daniel La Spata, won aldermanic seats Tuesday night, according to the Chicago Sun Times. Three other candidates, Rosanna Rodriguez-Sanchez, Byron Sigcho-Lopez, and Andre Vazquez will proceed to runoffs to try and win their seats on the council.

“The oligarchs are shaking in their boots tonight,” Ramirez-Rosa said after winning re-election, according to the Times. “Our continued organizing and movement-building over the last four years is paying dividends. And it appears to be a total transformation of political power at City Hall from the bottom up.”

Ramirez-Rosa faced a challenge from nonpartisan candidate Amanda Yu Dieterich.

La Spata was the challenger in his race, taking out incumbent Ald. Proco “Joe” Morena in the 1st Ward.

Rodriguez-Sanchez was also a challenger, and will face incumbent Ald. Deb Mell from the 33rd Ward.

“Chicago had a way of doing politics, and I feel like that died tonight,” Rodríguez-Sánchez said at her post-election party. “I’m very very confident that I’m going to win” the runoff in April.

Sigcho-Lopez hopes to win the open seat in the 25th Ward vacated by Ald. Danny Solis, who retired. Sigcho-Lopez said it was the DSA that helped him get his chance to win the seat.

“DSA members were instrumental, and I’m thankful to the volunteers who spent hundreds — thousands — of hours campaigning,” Sigcho-Lopez said at his election party, according to the Times. “We’ve had a rubber-stamp City Council beholden to corporate interests, and that’s why the DSA candidates resonated with people.”

Finally, Vazquez faces incumbent Ald. Pat O’Connor in the 40th Ward, who has represented the Ward for 35 years and is now in charge of the city’s finance committee, taking over for Ald. Edward Burke, who was recently charged with trying to extort the owner of a Burger King (Burke also won re-election outright last Tuesday. Because, Chicago.)

DSA co-chair Lucie Macias told the Times that the organization “supports rent control and having an [sic] Chicago school board and opposes plans to build a new police academy in Garfield Park. Nationally, the group backs ‘Medicare for all.’”


Poster Comment:

Just when we were ready to write Chicago and surrounding area off, they commit suicide.

What the hell is Asche talking aoub here? All Democrats are socialists (same as communists).>p> Here's Chicago that many are familiar with:

Ed Burke, who recently turned 75, is running for a 13th term as Chicago alderman. He was elected in 1968 after his father, Alderman Joseph Burke, died in office. He has served as Finance Committee chairman for the last 30 years.

A criminal complaint unsealed alleges Burke used his powerful position as chairman of Chicago City Council's Finance Committee to solicit business for his private tax law firm, Klafter & Burke.

That is, Burke tried to extort a company that owns a chain of fast-food restaurants in the Chicago area. That company was seeking permits for a remodeling job.

In exchange for help to get those permits, Burke allegedly ( ha-ha 'allegedly') wanted the company to use Klafter & Burke, which specializes in property tax appeals, for that business.

If any two gangs of failed greedy parasites deserved each other, it's Shitcago and commies.
Looks like they're ready to just give up to the Mexicans as well.

Democrat(ic) Socialists

No such animal! Either you are a socialist or not. Its kinda like did you murder someone. Either you did or you didn't.

Those that push socialism by any name is akin to pushing crack to children!

I hope these dumbshits make it office. Then we'll have a year and a half of Shitcago Communism to observe as a lead-in to the national race with the DNC's national lunatics.

Perhaps they should change the name of their so-called Democrat Party to either Socialist or Communist.

The anti-American would be a better fit.

Liberals are like Slinkys. They're good for nothing, but somehow they bring a smile to your face as you shove them down the stairs.
