Launched in 2020, the Serafin Power Poll is an interactive polling platform that surveys business, civic, media and political insiders to produce valuable insight into what some of the Chicago region's most influential citizens think about pressing civic issues.
While it's not a scientific poll, it is a fascinating, non-partisan and strictly anonymous glimpse into the attitudes and opinions of those individuals who essentially run the city.
