Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot urged black voters to help her 'keep the seat' from falling to white or Hispanic challengers, despite an appalling spike in crime.

As Lightfoot seeks a second term in the upcoming February 28 election, some business leaders concerned about the continuing crime wave say they don't think she is up to the task.

In rallies on Saturday, Lightfoot told the South and West side residents who don't support her to not bother voting at all. Chicago's South Side is a historically-black area.

Hell of a platform, and she will probably be re-elected...one way or the other.

No doubt she'll remain in office.

Well,it's going to be hard to beat them in Chicago,with all the blacks,including the dead ones and the ones who have never voted for anyone,voting several times for her.

Whites just exist to pay the taxes to provide a life of leisure and riot for the majority of the black citizens in Chicago.
