Rahm Emanuel’s Wife

Rahm Emanuel’s Wife, An election official says Rahm Emanuel’s wife won’t have to testify at a hearing over challenges to the former White House chief of staff’s Chicago residency.

Chicago Board of Election Commissioners hearing officer Joseph Morris said Monday there’s no information Amy Rule can provide that those trying to prevent Emanuel from running for mayor of Chicago can’t get from Emanuel himself.
