Democrats Add To New Look Changes In Indiana Primaries
In Lake County Indiana the Democratic “new look” push expanded with a loss for former county party boss and the defeat of three indicted Gary city councilmen. East Chicago Mayor Walter Jeorse trailed Dr. John Nicosia by 107 votes and hinted at a recount. Indicted councilmen face perjury charges linked to kickback cases involving ex mayor Chacharis. Least two other Mayors and many nominees across cities pursued renomination.
