It’s not hyperbole to say the landslide loss for Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot has massive national implications. Chicago is the biggest American city that doesn’t touch an ocean, one that has been ruled over by Democrats for decades. That’s not going to change; two Democrats beat her out in last night’s primary. But it’s telling that a leftist city that installed her for one term didn’t give her another round.
That hasn’t happened in Chicago in 40 years.
“But they’re still going to get a Democrat,” many will admit. This is true. But that doesn’t take away from the fact that a once-beloved mayor was ousted by a ridiculous margin due to her track record. Democrat-run cities have been oblivious to their leaders’ track records for a long time. Is there a shift happening?

Lori Lightfoot Loses Reelection Battle to Be Mayor of Chicago
Current Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot has lost her bid to get reelected as mayor, edged out by rivals who don’t yet have a record of letting Chicago collapse into complete anarchy and become even more of a crime-ridden cesspool.
In fact, she didn’t even come in second. She came in a dismal third, with candidate Paul Vallas winning the battle with 153,747 votes as of the time this article was written and Brandon Johnson coming in second with a little over 89,000 votes. The battle will now head to a runoff on April 4th, as no candidate garnered 50% of the vote.
