They're dancing in the streets of West Ridge!
Change has come to Chicago's 50th Ward!
Berny Stone, the 36 year City Council Boss FINALLY LOSES.
It took a while. We thought we had a strong candidate in 2007 in Naisy Dolar. But she couldn't quite do it. Now Debra Silverstein achieved a victory for progressives everywhere.
I know this diary is really short. I wanted to recount in detail all the ways that Berny Stone's corrupt and bigoted attitude hurt the 50th ward and the city of Chicago. But that's for another time. For now, let's just celebrate!
