Similarly in 2022, polls were not picking up Brandon Johnson at this point in the race. the sitting mayor then had similar favorability levels. #TheChicagoIndex

This poll missed one critical thing: John Kelly. 36,000 signatures filed today. $2.5 million in the bank, six times the sitting mayor’s. A third of voters still undecided. I’ll take those odds. I don’t want the title. I want the job. @CrainsChicago, call us. #KellyForChicago

Crazy things are happening in the 20th Ward here in Chicago. This alderperson held community meetings AND a community vote about a proposed new development, the vote went in favor of the project, and then the alder...denied the project citing lack of community support.
