YOU GET TO VOTE! The nation vote by others=50% of the total votes

1st candidate: The incumbant, Richard M. Daley,
He is a democrat and roots for our national teams, The Chicago Bears and White Sox. He took good action to ban the Cubs

2nd candidate; Ozzie Guillen, manager of the Sox and a national hero.
An immigrant from Venezuela who knows alot about management from his experience with the Sox. He is a great motivator and supports Daley's move to ban the Cubs

3rd Candidate: Steve Bartman, a Cubs fan who has been turned on by the fans after the famous game 6 incident during the 8th inning of the NLCS. He has been made a scapegoat and wants revenge on the city that threatened to kill him and destroyed his life. He will support the Sox, but is broken hearted by the Cubs betrayal. Bartman was blamed, but we all know it was Gonzo's error that did it (with Pryor's horrible pitching)

(who can forget that picture? Will this hero be our next mayor?)

I messed up on the poll so I'll add the doubles together

I'm voting Guillen, but like Bartman. Will Hawk and DJ do the election news coverage?

bartman has a lead

Ozzy! Ozzy!

Seriously, I want Ozzy to win

WGN News Coverage: 2004, Mayoral Elections

"we are getting early returns on the elections in Chicago. The 2nd ward has just tabulated their votes.

We have White Sox manager Ozzy Guillen leading there with 45% of the vote.

Incumbant dictator mayor Dayley has 39% and as a reporter I will dare say he bribed people for that vote.

*reporter suddenly dies and is promptly replaced*

Bartman has only 16%, it seems the Sox fans won't forgive him for being a Cubs fan. Our Cubs fans are voting Daley.

Now onto Sports:

The Sox are winning despite being without Magglio Ordonez, their best hitter who will be out 4-7 weeks after having surgery on Sauturday

We are live at US Cellular Field where the Sox just beat the Braves to win a 3 game Interleague series 2-1. We have highlights from today's game. The voice you will hear next in this highlight will be announcer Ken "Hawk" Harrelson


"Here we are, bottom of the 9th, 2 outs, Willie Harris on 2nd with the Big Hurt (that's Frank Thomas) up to bat. He's down in the count 1-2.
Sox are losing 2-3."

"the pitch, big Swing, it's headed deep. gonna be close, come on get up! Stetch. It will! He looks up. YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOOOOAAARRRRDDD eee YESSSSS! Sox win!"

The winning pitcher is Marke Buerhle who got his 1st complete game on the year and is now 6-1.

Losing pitcher is Antonio Alfonseca, or Alfonsucka as we called him when with the Cubs last year.

Cubs got killed at Wrigley today by the horrible D-Rays in interleague play
