soldier field could be getting even bigger, if mayor emanuel has his way. he is reportedly considering a five thousand seat expansion, as the city explores a super bowl bid. the mayor has said chicago could bid for the super bowl as early as 2019. right now, chicago houses the n-f-l's smallest stadium, in terms of capacity. soldier field seats a little more than 61 thousand people. but that's still about eight thousand seats less than the n- f-l's preferred minimum for a super bowl. no major disruptions were reported yesterday as the illinois standard achievement test got underway. the exam require all students 3-8. some students say it's taking away from concern time since the current version will be phased out. officials had threatened to force a boycotting teachers from the school building but were allowed to stay and teach students who did not take the test. at least 1500 students opted not to take the test. the data is required by the new child left behind act. >>the four republican candidates for governor faced off in a debate at the university of chi

emanuel, thank you so much for being here. i think that's a pretty unambiguous title about how you feel about things. where do you think we stand right now? >> well, i think four years after passage of the aca, we're actually in a very good spot. the exchange is about to end its first open enrollment, the projections are by the end of monday we'll have about 6.5 million people enrolled, which is just off what was projected originally, and that's pretty good, considering for two months the federal exchange didn't work in there. some state exchanges still aren't working. we've got actually great improvements in quality that have hardly been prump etted at all. declines in hospital infection, decline in other errors like early c-sections that aren't for medical reasons, so the, you know, quality has been improving and then cost has been flat for the last three years. as a matter of fact, people on medicare and medicaid have not seen real increases in their premiums, so i think we're at a very good spot. as i keep saying, that's n
