Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot (D) on Tuesday failed to secure enough votes to advance to the runoff on Tuesday, losing her bid for a second term in office, according to an Associated Press projection.
Lightfoot becomes the first Chicago mayor to lose a bid for reelection in 40 years[.]
I'm surprised. I'd have figured the Chicago Dem Machine would've re-installed her.
Her finest moments of intolerance and rage can be viewed here.
Kwame Amoaku, 51, was appointed by Mayor Lori Lightfoot in July 2019 to head the city's film office.
On Wednesday morning he was attacked and beaten up outside his home, and his car stolen by 'three kids'.
Amoaku was taken to hospital where he was admitted to ICU and treated for head injuries, but is expected to recover.
Chicago police say that carjackings are up three percent, and 57 percent of those arrested are juveniles.
On Saturday Lightfoot told a forum of young people, assembled to discuss crime reduction strategies, that carjackings were because youth 'feel unloved'.
In February she blamed the rise of carjackings on remote learning during the pandemic.
The head of Chicago's Film Office was rushed to intensive care after being beaten by three car thieves described as children - as the very mayor who appointed him claimed carjackers only struck because they feel unloved.
Kwame Amoaku, 51, was attacked twice by three people just before 8am Wednesday morning outside his home in the centre of Chicago, near the National Museum of Mexican Art.

Chicago police reported that Amoaku saw three young men inside his car as he walked toward it at 7:46am, on the 2100 block of West 22nd Place.
He confronted the intruders, who then attacked him and fled in a gray Dodge Caravan that was waiting nearby.
Moments later, they returned to the scene, beating Amoaku a second time and robbing him, before driving off in his car.
'This AM I was attacked, beaten, and my car stolen by three kids,' he wrote on Facebook.
But were the "child" carjackers wearing MAGA hats?
