This week we saw Rahm Emanuel, President Obama’s chief of staff resign and make plans to run for the Mayor of Chicago. As he gives his emotional farewells to Obama and the White House staff we find that now he isn’t qualified to run for mayor because he is not a legal resident of Chicago. According to their state’s municipal code it is most clear that you have to reside in Chicago at least one year before an election. Rahm has been in D.C. for the last two years.
