Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel Bought his Re-election for a mere $22.8 million dollars




Rahm Emanuel and a supportive political action committee spent more than $22.8 million in the preliminary and runoff elections en route to the mayor winning a second term, new campaign finance reports show.



By contrast, challenger Jesus "Chuy" Garcia and his union allies spent at least $4.6 million, far behind Emanuel, who collected 56 percent of the vote last week.
