Rahm-ed Off The Ballot

Court Tosses Emanuel Off Chicago Mayoral Ballot

U.S. President Barack Obama's former chief-of-Staff, Rahm Emanuel, is used to ramming legislation through Congress on the Commander-in-Chief's behalf, from the comfort of the White House in Washington, D.C.

Emanuel intends to appeal the decision by lodging a complaint with the Illinois Supreme Court.
