Sorry for the frivolousness of this observation, but can there ever have been a mayoral election in a major US city contested between two candidates with surnames as outlandish as these? The minds of Chicago voters who have not been attentive may explode when confronted in the booth with a choice between Preckwinkle and Lightfoot. Is this Chicago or Margaritaville? Yet it seems one or other of them will occupy the office of Dick Daley. Both are reformers, I believe. What would Leon Despres, the lonely political eccentric from Hyde Park doomed to be perpetually ignored by the downtown boys, make of that? It sounds like Toni, at least, may have cut some deals along the way with those boys. If she is elected we will not, however, have to deal with the given name of her former spouse, also a UChicago College grad: it was Zeus.
