I for one do not want to go back to the days of feudal ethnic warfare. If that becomes the order of the day I am gone. I just believe that Preckwinkle would be more insolated against that. Evidence is her pop-tax, though I disagreed with her, she yet held true to her convictions, until John Daley told her she didn't have the support from his constituents. I cant think of any convictions Lightfoot have shown.

I'm not understanding how you are coming to the conclusions that Preckwinkle would be more downtown-centric and would prevent all out "ethnic warfare"
