The
most corrupt city in America is none other than Chicago, following the
windy city are Los Angeles, Manhattan, D.C., Miami, Newark, Cleveland,
Philadelphia, Richmond, and Brooklyn.
- Chicago has been run by Democrats since 1933.
- Los Angeles has seen one Republican mayor since 1961.
- New
York City has had two Republicans mayors since 1973, although it is
worth noting one mayor became an independent after his first term.
- D.C. has had a Democratic mayor every term since 1975.
- Newark has had Democratic mayors every term since
1962.
- Cleveland has seen two Republican mayors since 1972.
- Philadelphia has had Democratic mayors since 1952.
- Richmond, perhaps most shocking, has only had one
Republican mayor since 1868.
- New Orleans for its part has only had two Republican
mayors since 1866, and both of those were during Reconstruction.
- Miami is the only city on the list with an even split
of five Republicans and five Democrats since 1973.
