| Chicago Mayoral Candidate Gives Away $200,000 Cash To Churchgoing Voters |
| 2018-07-24 |
| [Chicago Sun Times] Willie Wilson Perennial Chi-Town Politician/Huckster said he handed out a whole lot of money Sunday at a South Side church - a couple hundred grand, in fact. But he insists that's nothing new. And he said Sunday's event, attended by Gov. Bruce Rauner, had absolutely nothing to do with his run for mayor. However, it's already raised more than a few eyebrows on the campaign trail. "I think people try to make political hay out of it because they don't got nothing else on me," Wilson said. Great bit of double-negative 'in-the-hood' wordplay there Willie, Freudian slip perhaps? Republican state Rep. David McSweeney asked on Twitter, "How can Willie Wilson, a candidate for Mayor of Chicago, literally hand out CASH at a public event? This is so wrong!" But when asked about allegations of vote buying, Mr. Didnadonuffin Wilson said, "There's no truth to that at all." Ah yes, This is Chicago |
