I have the strong impression that in cities where a certain party is dominant over a longer period of time there is a strong connection of politics, economics and civil society which of course can lead to corruption in some cases.
I observed this in my hometown, where we have the same party in power for 67 years that there are strong connections between office holders, business representatives and people coming from unions, social communities etc. Even organised crime plays a certain role in this. It works out fine though especially for the governing party and as long they deliver and don't abuse their power which is the case here and seems in Chicago I'm generally OK with it.
