Who elected him the McCormick boss and Chicago politics
A turbulent Chicago political column questions McCormick’s rise to county presidency and names alleged Democratic allies and foes. It attacks the County Board head as a mix of Progressives and Republicans, ties to salaries, and accuses him of harming William L. O Connell and Democratic strength. It also criticizes amusement censorship rules and calls for reform in city governance and reforms in primary elections.
