U.S. Rep. Jesus “Chuy” Garcia (4th) has been accused of thumbing the political scales in favor of his chosen successor. In November, Garcia dropped out of the race just before the candidacy submission deadline, leaving his chief of staff, Patty Garcia, as the only Democratic candidate on the ballot. Now, independents in the race say the elder statesman is creating even more campaign hurdles. We discuss the details with contributors Leigh Giangreco and Anna Deshawn. Plus, the Obama Presidential Center celebrates queer history all year long, and host Jacoby Cochran reviews Chicago’s newest Michelin-starred restaurant, Feld.
