There are no Participation Ribbons for elections, either you win or you lose. Tradition has it that the loser calls the winner to congratulate him/her and wish them good luck.
As of 3PM today Pat Botbyl has yet to make the call to Mayor Elect Clark. I understand he (Botbyl) may have gone out of town (Chicago) but it stretches the imagination to wonder why he couldn't take 15 seconds to say "Hi, this is Pat Botbyl, congratulations on your victory and good luck, bye"
Now I know things happen, Chicago might have cell phone disruptions, he may have forgotten his phone at WL or maybe even his mobile fell into a toilet at O'Hare. So I am cutting him some slack. My guess is Mayor Elect Clark isn't holding a vigil on his phone in expectation of a call.
