National Guard moves into Chicago ahead of possible election unrest |
2020-11-04 |
[BIZPACREVIEW] Democratic Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker has mobilized the National Guard to reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown![]() in preparation for potential unrest in the days following the 2020 general election. Pritzker said he’s putting the military personnel "in state of readiness," as he claimed the election results for the state may not be available until "Wednesday, or Thursday, or even Friday," according to the Chicago Tribune. The move to station the National Guard is reminiscent of an earlier decision by the city in September, which followed the controversial verdict to charge one of three Louisville, Kentucky, officers involved in the death of Breonna Taylor, the local outlet reported. |
