Best Answer

As with all public offices, there are certain requirements one must meet to become an alderman in Chicago. Alderman must be elected. To be placed on the ballot one must collect the needed number of signatures. A candidate must also be debt free to the city and ready to work. Once all of the paperwork is filled out, submit your paperwork to be placed on the ballot.

You run and get elected.

The procedure is as follows:

One, you work your way up as a city employee by being a good lemming and buying fund raiser tickets. These tickets are to be bought no matter what. Failure to do so will cause you your position. This means you are either demoted or worse laid off on the next round. Second, if you are a good lemming, pay your dues and move up the ladder far enough, you could buy the alderman's job. I hear the rate is 20,00 Gs, many have done it. It is the only way to get this job many have done it. It is safe and secure because it is hard to prove.
