They don't have anything to offer except mopping up the "anyone but Rahm" vote for their own long term political gain. Seriously, everyone knows Rahm is going to win. Every candidate who is running has nothing to lose by pissing Rahm off and is going for the "I ran for mayor and got 20% of the vote" resume builder. I will be completely shocked if this election goes to a runoff. Rahm is probably just about to start dumping his cash on that remaining undecided voter category and they will all comply with his propaganda. Going to call it at 55% Rahm, 21% Chuy, 15% Fioretti, 9% other.
