how the blue do it. did i say things are changing in cook county?

toni preckwinkle, cook county board president, was the one person who could have beaten rahm. but she loves the job she is doing, and i hope she stays there forever.

instead of raising taxes she is actually, gasp, going after waste fraud and abuse.
she is tracking down scofflaws and tax evaders, using audits and industry searches to find fee dodgers.
and keeping collection agency fees by going after that money w county personnel.

oommgg.

did i mention that i love living in the blues of the blue?
