21st Ward alderman candidate Cornell Dantzler is calling for his opponent Ronnie Mosley to withdraw, saying he wasn't truthful about his resume.
The newly mapped and much bigger 21st Ward includes seven South Side neighborhoods and comprises 600 blocks.
"It is a very filthy ward and the first thing I'm going to put on agenda is bringing beauty and functionality to the ward," said Dantzler. "He told some lies about graduating from Morehouse College a lie that didn't need to be told and when you tell lies what else are you going to lie about," he said.Mosley's campaign website says he's completed his studies at Morehouse but the 31-year-old admits he has yet to graduate.
Making it a campaign issue, Dantzler is comparing Mosley to New York Congressman George Santos, who was caught lying about his background. Dantzler also doesn't believe Mosley worked 16 jobs in his 31 years.
