Here's a BIG reason why Lori Lightfoot lost her re-election bid

[atlkvb]

It's not because Chicago voters are racist, or sexist, or homophobic, or any of that Left wing rot gut. It's because they're tired of living in fear from random crime & violence. Chicago has some of the toughest gun restrictions in the country, but without firm support for Law enforcement from city administrators charged with protecting the public safety, criminals don't fear obeying the Law!

It's not just in Chi town either where voters are insisting...ENOUGH! (btw most of the cities where crime is rampant are run by Leftists Democrats)

excerpt:
Chicago’s crime increase forced the mayoral race to focus intensely on public safety, but it was far from the only recent blue city race to hinge almost exclusively on how Democratic candidates pledged to restore law and order.

Lightfoot’s decision to seek reelection against the backdrop of dissatisfaction with her public safety record differed from how similar situations played out in Atlanta and Seattle, where two Democratic mayors opted not to run again when concerns about crime complicated their paths.

Agree. If Americans were allowed to exercise their Constitutional rights, it would help.

"Handcuffing" cops doesn't help either.

It also doesn't help that when her city is in chaos, she's out dancing in the streets and lying to her constituents that everything is great.

This ironically is fine example of a misguided Leftist being held accountable for a failed policy.

From above linked article:
"Lightfoot had pitched herself as more progressive than her Democratic opponents in that 2019 race, and she focused in particular on the need to reform the Chicago police to address what she described as its unequal treatment of black residents".

So what was the result of her misguided policy based on her mis-perceptions of race?

Again from above linked article:
"She pushed for and eventually secured, among other reforms, restrictions on police pursuits that effectively banned foot chases in most cases.

That left an opening for one of the victorious Chicago mayoral candidates, Paul Vallas, to accuse Lightfoot of handcuffing the police force as it tried to get Chicago crime under control. Vallas was the top vote-getter on Tuesday and will advance to the runoff in April".


Her failed policies resulted in a crime wave. Chicago voters correctly bounced her from Office for her failure to protect public safety! When Leftists are held accountable for their bad ideas, they usually and should lose their ability to inflict any further damage on voters. I just wish all voters would hold them accountable for all of their failed ideas. We'd quickly get rid of most of them as well as their bad ideas and begin to restore this country to something we'd recognize instead of the steaming pile of manure Leftists and their misguided policies have turned it into!

Shocker. A bad politician loses and Chicago will still end up w/ a Democratic mayor. Breaking news.

If Republicans continue pointing out where the EXACT SAME Democrat polices are failing, it won't take voters long to figure out who to blame?

Nolte: Violent Crime Forces Amazon to Flee Democrat-Run Downtown Seattle | Conservative News Daily™

Deep Blue Seattle is such a crime-ridden sewer that far-left Amazon has been forced to relocate 1,800 of its employees out of downtown. So here’s today’s lesson in getting what you

www.conservativenewsdaily.net

excerpt:
Amazon and its employees, who you just know are mostly leftists, cast the votes and make the donations that put far-left Democrats in power, and then, when the chickens of that voting record come home to roost in the predictable form of an imploding city, they all get to skedaddle. Meanwhile, those residents who are not limousine leftists get left behind to wallow in the wreckage.

All Republicans have to do is highlight where Leftist policies don't work. Hang their failed record around their Leftist necks!

If the incoming Democrat can fix things, that's awesome.

The news is Lightfoot has and always sucked and she scoffed at the disaster she was. R, D or I. Who cares? If the incoming Dem sucks, hopefully they vote him out too.

This is news and it is GREAT news. You seem to wave it off because your team is still in control. For me, it's not about that. My team is America, its freedoms and its liberties 🗽

Clearly the Democrat Left has a big problem on this issue of crime. While they may try to avoid the results of their failed policies, it's going to be hard for them to separate their ideas from their results. However they will try, as Biden showed in his recent decision to support GOP legislation on a tougher crime bill for D.C.

Why Biden decided to side with GOP and not veto a DC crime bill

President Biden on Thursday said he would not veto legislation Republicans have championed that would undo parts of a District of Columbia crime bill, reflecting how the White House is trying to na…

Democrats were largely on defense on the issue of crime in last fall’s midterms, with some experts citing the issue as a key reason Republicans gained House seats in New York state and why that state’s gubernatorial race was closer than expected. The president’s decision received a chilly reception among House Democrats. While 31 Democratic lawmakers — many from moderate districts — voted to approve the bill, the majority opposed it

It's not just about crime...Republicans can defeat the Left on a few simple issues that ALL voters can easily see the results of failed Leftist policies. Here's a peek at how the GOP can capitalize

www.capoliticalreview.com

excerpt
Pass reforms that will lead to job creation, crime reduction, and border security.

Job creation, crime reduction and border security are winning issues. Republicans can champion those issues with their power of the purse. Instead of passing omnibus bills that anger their base.

...more
Now that they are in control of the House, and can determine the nature of any spending bills, Republicans should only pass bills that contain necessary spending and no frills. They should avoid omnibus bills at all costs. When they pass targeted appending bills, they should market to the American people why that spending is necessary and why they are rejecting the Democrats calls for greater spending.

Republicans should apply pressure to the Democrats and Biden to pass their simple, straightforward bills. By doing so, they can demonstrate to Americans they are solution oriented and, likely why Democrats are obstructionist on important issues. They also can set the table for controlling the narrative in 2024 and winning the House, Senate and White House.

I know you're not that bright, but your memory must be going as well. I don't focus on party. I vote across parties unlike you, and don't pretend you have voted for a Dem in the least 30 years. I'm sure you Trumpers will still complain about a Dem in office. I agree Dems can be different. That wasn't my point. My point was that you Trumpers will still complain.

Trump just needs to concentrate on issues, and drive home the Left's failed policies. Most GOP voters are already with him, so he simply needs to sharpen his message on what policies he will bring back to undo all the Left's obvious failures.

Many Trumpers is old school dirty hands blue collar people. Many old school Democrats can see the path new school Democrats are taking and don't like it .
If a Democrat gets in and turns it around with the way the leftist has taken the party ( soft on crime) then I promise you I will brag on them . I have voted Democrat Many times in my past until 26 I was a hard core old school Democrat.
