Court Rules Against Eligibility for Rahm Emanuel

George Wenschhof

Former White House chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel's bid to be mayor of Chicago was dealt a potential fatal blow.

The Illinois Appellate Court, on a 2-1 vote, overturned a recent decision made by the Chicago Board of Elections who had decided Emanuel did meet residency requirements.

At question is did he give up his residency when he moved to Washington D.C. to assume the White House Chief of Staff position.

Former President Bill Clinton was in Chicago just last week, campaigning for Emanuel.

Stay Tuned....
