The former White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel was elected mayor of Chicago, he easily beat five rivals and he is now in control of the nation’s third-largest city.
Rahm said the victory was“humbling” and thanked Daley for his lifetime of service, saying the outgoing mayor had “earned a special place in our hearts and our history.”
But he added: “We have not won anything until a kid can go to school thinking of their studies and not their safety. Until the parent of that child is thinking about their work and not where they are going to find work, we have not won anything.”
Rahm is a 51-year-old married father of three, and will be the city’s first Jewish mayor. He is a well-known figure in national Democratic politics. He worked for two presidents and served three terms representing the North Side in the House of Representatives.
Congrats to Rahm Emanuel!!!!!
