Why JFK Came to Chicago-- Part 2

Former Cook County State's Attorney Benjamin Adamowski was hammering away at Daley's shady construction deals. The president's visit was just two weeks before the April 2nd election.

It was also no surprise that Kennedy flew in with U.S. Reps. Roman Pucinski and John Kluczynski, two high-profile Illinois politicians who backed Daley.

Well, it certainly helped Daley get 56% of the vote and continue as Chicago's mayor.

The Daley Family Thanks JFK. ---DaCoot
