Jonathan Jackson was endorsed by U.S. Rep. Jesus 'Chuy' Garcia Wednesday in the race to replace Rep. Bobby Rush in Congress.
CHICAGO -- Jonathan Jackson was endorsed by U.S. Rep. Jesus"Chuy" Garcia Wednesday in the race to replace Rep. Bobby Rush.
"I proudly stand with Jonathan Jackson and throw my wholehearted support and endorsement to his effort to become the next congressman of the First District," Garcia said."I think at this point, all, any endorsements you get are probably going to be significant because this is where everybody is trying to elevate themselves above the clutter," said political consultant Delmarie Cobb.
"Chicago is a very sophisticated market. People understand what money does, and more importantly, people understand those who care," Jackson said."So, his endorsement today is the message that exceeds any value you can put on any capital on any money." "And a lot of people, even if they make it on the ballot, they simply will not have the money to be viable candidates," Cobb said.
