Blame Kanye! Chicago Eliminated From Olympic Ballot
Regardless of the strong support system including President Barack Obama, Michelle Obama and even Oprah, the International Olympics Committee eliminated Chicago in the first round of voting, followed quickly by Tokyo being eliminated in the second round.
Mayor Richard Daley is said to be very disappointed and it is unknown whether or not the city will regroup to bid for the 2020 Summer Games.
The reaction in Chicago is probably mixed as a recent poll found that public support fell to 47 percent, most likely due to the worry of increased taxes.
The final decision between Madrid and Rio de Janeiro has yet to be announced.
