Mayor Lori Lightfoot hit the airwaves Tuesday with a campaign ad confronting what mayoral challengers call her Achilles’ heel: violent crime and the perception of it.
hit the airwaves Tuesday with a campaign ad confronting what mayoral challengers call her Achilles’ heel: violent crime and the perception of it.
The scene then shifts to media headlines that read, "Mayor Boosts Police Spending," "CPD Recovers 12,000 guns" and bold lettering that reads, "Modern Systems," "New Technology" and "Historic Anti-Violence Investment" as the narrator continues to tell the mayor’s crime-fighting story. A series of photos shows Lightfoot talking to a police officer, conferring with police Supt.
In addition, the overall number of reported crimes has risen by more than 12% from last year, unnerving residents and sending some businesses packing. But the stubbornly high levels of shootings, brazen strong-armed and smash-and-grab robberies and carjackings downtown, along the lakefront and in other parts of the city once immune to violent crime has left residents and businesses on edge.
"Even the language — her ’haters’. She’s trying to be colloquial. And having a Black man narrate that she’s invested more than any other mayor in crime prevention. And we didn’t get here overnight," Cobb said.
