Rahm Emanuel announced in an online video posted on Sunday he is running for mayor of Chicago, urging residents to tell him in "blunt Chicago terms" how to make the nation's third-largest city better.
The candidacy had already been considered a given, especially since Emanuel, 50, resigned as White House chief of staff in a ceremony on Friday.
He said in the video he is embarking on a "Tell It Like It Is" listening tour of the city.
"As I prepare to run for mayor, I'm going to spend the next few weeks visiting our neighborhoods, at grocery stores, El (train) stops, bowling alleys, and hot dog stands," said Emanuel, shown seated at a desk with a jacket and open-necked white shirt.
"I'm calling it the 'Tell It Like It Is Tour.' I want to hear from you, in blunt Chicago terms, what you think about our city and how the next mayor, and you, can make it better."
