Stroger Recap
Chicagoist has a nice recap of what Stroger has been up to this year.
I had a number of friends get pissed off at me for voting Republican in the county election, however watching services to the poor get cut while expensive patronage positions stay filled, I stand by my decision that in this particular case voting Republican would have been better for the Democratic agenda.
Of course my preference would have been Claypool, but I’m getting used to disappointment. I think that I have voted for the loser in every election for the past five or six. Now which alderman candidate wants me to vote for him again? I have the vote of death in Chicago.
