Illinois Supremes Rule in Favor of Emanuel

The Illinois Supreme Court ruled 7-0 late Thursday that Rahm Emanuel can run for mayor of

Chicago.

Emanuel's legitimacy to run for mayor was questioned by some who took him to court on the matter. They claimed that because he lived in Washington D.C. for most of last year as White House chief-of-staff, he did meet the one-year residency requirement to appear on the ballot in Chicago.

Polls indicate that Emanuel is well ahead in the polls, for the February election.
