Yeah, I thought Vallas had the momentum, but now I'm starting to worry. Last night's debate had Johnson moving away from certain tactics (borderline accusing Vallas as being racist, calling him an extreme republican, etc, etc), and is trying to move towards other tactics.

Johnson just looks so weak on the public safety front in these debates. Not to say we shouldn't invest in mental health more, but I'm with Vallas in terms of getting more police in the community to tamp things down.

On the CTA, the "security" they have hired is a fucking joke. They are young people hired to basically stand around on the train. They usually are socializing with each other, and I have doubts they would do anything if a major issue actually broke out on the train. One day I saw a crazy screaming dude walk right onto the CTA Blue line with them standing around and essentially doing nothing.

Johnson caters to the woke progressives of the North Side, and it's a shame to see Garcia throw his support to Johnson. Then again though.... Garcia is a cog in the machine, and Johnson has the CTU endorsing him.... so.... I guess it makes sense.
