...
two of Chicago's top election lawyers say the state's municipal code is
crystal clear that a candidate for mayor must reside in the town for a
year before the election.
That doesn't mean they must simply own a home in the city that they
rent out to someone else. They must have a place they can walk into,
keep a toothbrush, hang up their jacket and occasionally sleep, the
lawyers say.
Another three election lawyers say Emanuel could be thrown off the
ballot on a residency challenge.

Excuse me for laughing milk out my nose, but the idea that one of the
architects of the most obscenely corrupt administrations in history
will be stopped by a mere city ordinance- in Chicago - is snort worthy.
Laws only apply to democrats here when another, more powerful, democrat
wants them to. May cause a bit of a kerfuffle , but that's
all.
