Chicago Mob linked Alexi Giannoulias and Chicago Mob linked Rod Blagojevich make news.
U.S. Senate candidate Alexi Giannoulias said today that he has been subpoenaed to testify at the corruption trial of ousted Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich.
The first-term Illinois treasurer, a Democrat who's locked in a contentious race for President Barack Obama's old Senate seat with Republican Congressman Mark Kirk, told The Associated Press that he was subpoenaed by Blagojevich's defense team.
Giannoulias' name was mentioned briefly last week during Blagojevich's trial. Former Blagojevich chief of staff John Harris was heard on federal wiretaps mentioning that Giannoulias had called about Obama's old seat on behalf of someone else. Blagojevich is heard telling Harris not to meet with Giannoulias about the matter.
