High Approval?
Evidently, pollsters are taking surveys in the bullpen at 26th and California right after the judge I-Bonds everyone:
- It looks like Mayor Lori Lightfoot has the political wind at her back as she seeks to deliver a police contract that makes it easier to investigate and discipline wayward officers and convince the Illinois General Assembly to require police officers to be licensed.
That’s the bottom line of a new survey by Lightfoot pollster Jason McGrath. It shows the first-year mayor with her highest job approval rating yet at 78%, with nearly two-thirds of those voters — 46% overall — saying they “strongly approve.”
The poll of 500 people who said they likely will vote in November was conducted June 21-23, during what Lightfoot has called a “month of civic uprising” and an outbreak of violence not seen since 2016. It has a margin of error of plus-or-minus 4.4 percentage points.
But Groot isn't running in November and the poll was taken before the next round of massive tax increases and in the face of Groot keeping Chicago businesses shut down and not generating any sort of sales tax revenue.
This is a crap poll taken by a crap pollster who works for a crap mayor.

I don't believe any liberal media "polls"
Polls are no longer meant to discover how people think, Polls are now used to TELL people how to think.
Who wants to be unpopular? Think like everyone else. Follow the herd. Baaaa! Baaa! Baaaa!
Well wait till ya hear my polling (no jokesters') results. Turns out im5the greatest fuckin thing since sliced bread! All dat & a bag if chips! Best you ever had! My sweetness is the reason you get cavities! 🤔 yeah, sounds about right 😘
probably the same polling company that gave putin, castro, chaves 100% ratings with their voters. i did some polling 25 years ago for a political outfit, we had the peoples names, addresses, ages and voting records. being forced labor we gave the chumbalones what they wanted to hear. with the incredible masses of data polsters have today its truly shooting fish in a barrel. crime in shitcago ? poll cops in mt billywood for one side of the story. want the other side ? poll teachers in rogers park. polls are total bullshit and anyone who believes them is an idiot.
This is a crap poll taken by a crap pollster.
*********
Ditto. There is no way that she has a rating that high - no way - not even in fantasy land.
and nearly two-thirds of those voters — 46% overall stated that they consider themselves morons
McGrath is a liberal democratic “strategist” and the only way he can keep a paycheck coming in from our little dic-hator is to lie to her and whisper in her ear that everyone loves her. He took this “strategy” straight from the tale of “The Emperor’s New Clothes”. Don’t you know his education history lists a BS from Georgetown University. The BS is for BullShit.
She’s looking at those licenses for revenue and they won’t be twenty dollars either. Then she can license the firefighters and EMTs. License everybody, what a great scam.
Require Police Officers to be licensed well then the new contract needs to include you can't be fired for losing your license without being convicted of a crime!
Anyone who believes the statistics of any poll posted by ANY media outlet is a moron and should sterilize themselves to prevent future morons from roaming this world.
Can't wait to leave Illinois!
President Trump is right, this city is a shithole run by imbeciles!
VOTE Trump 2020!
Political wind? More like political gas. Nobody is polling Joe-public. I heard aldermen begging for more police protection, and national guard, on that bootlegged copy of her conference call post-riots. Average person, non SJW, wants a good job, a safe block, and reasonable access to food, consumer goods, and medical care. Most have given up on their wish for competent governance and quality free public education. It's all Kabuki theater, 24/7, for our local and national politicians. Our local political party, the Machine, is for all intents and purposes, criminal. Pritzker belongs in jail, for the Blago senate-seat business, for the toilet seat business, for his Covid-19 lockdown theatrics and obvious conflict of interest w/ Pritzker-family vaccination manufacturer ownership interest. Lightfoot buying a $2 million Saugnash house, and based on what cash funds??
...in a crap city!
related to the crap writer and editor dan mcgrath of the fibune?
500 people?!? These democratic polls are embarrassing.
It is just MORE CRAP from the already shitty democrats of the shitty they made SHITTY!!!
The real problem in the city, county and state is that everybody with half a brain bitches & moans about all that is wrong with city, county & state. They are half brained because they NEVER do anything about it! THEY DON'T VOTE!!! They don't get involved!!! They all just sit and watch the fire without ever saying anything to anybody that would straighten out the problem(s)!!! THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT BUILT BY PEOPLE SITTING ON THEIR ASS WATCHING!!!
This country is great because people molded it, with hard work & effort, into the greatest on earth! 2 major problems are bringing it down, One is the democratic machine which started out helping the common man but lost its way and is now a bankrupting machine with NO FOCUS!!! Second is the fact that insignificant small organized groups have taken over the stage & the STUPID democRATic organization listens to them & the rest of population sits back & does nothing but bitch!!! Get involved, BITCH, before its too late!!!
Wait, the poll was taken by a guy who works for the mayor? And after the poll was taken the guy was going to go back to the mayor and tell her that everyone thinks she sucks and is the laughingstock of the United States? Some people know which side their bread is buttered on. It’s all in how you look at the numbers.
Yea and the polls gave Hillary a 98% chance of winning. Who’d they ask her family members?
Can Mayor BugEyes actually buy a house where all the streets are named after Indian tribes?
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
There will be idiots on the job who will try and enforce this bs without. a doubt
People in that city have got to be the dumbest MF on the planet - I’m sure mostly the libs on the north shore!
When I am contacted by a pollster on my landline I always lie. Does that taint the data🤫?
The greatest mayor in Chicago history.
The Daley-Emanuel-Lightfoot death spiral accelerates and is applauded by all.
Ask Hillary Clinton what she thinks of Polls. Remember she was a lock to win by EVERY Pollster.
If the people are happy here let them stay but, I see a lot of for sale signs on the south side.
As everyone knows since 2016, polls don't reflect opinion. They're meant to try to shape opinion.
Don’t worry. She’ll win if she runs again.
The only modern politician who has a polling favorability that high is Xi Jinping of Communist China, followed closely by Vladimir Putin of Russia. Are there any other similarities between these three proponents of "social justice."
Another chump Demorat!
78%... I feel like I'm surrounded by morons, who approve of lori lightfoot in this deadly city and want to ban plastic straws. Who are these people?
Lol, how soon we forget what the pols were saying regarding the 2016 presidential election.
Highest approval rating yet? Are they doing these polls on a monthly basis ?
Why the poll in the first place? Larri’s operatives using city money and stay-at-home city time to conduct a publicity stunt? No questions about violence and crime huh?
Doe Larri need the boost with 3 years to the next election... or is there something more lucrative she’s interested in and need the notoriety?
Good amount of opportunity gifting of elected spots to friends and family coming up soon.
Angry toad crank mayor
fairy tales can come true...
I would love to see this fucking poll....has to be completely BS. Everyone....every single person I talk to...liberal and conservative..thinks she is a joke.
GROOT beat PRICK WRINKLE...
so many asshat ran for mayor it split up votes.
IF little LORI thinks BURKE is done she has another thing coming
LORI best watch out for crazy willie wilson too first hes goona try and piss off ass hat DURBIN for senate.
OH LORI the socialist are gonna run too.
The little dwarf creature is threatening establishments with fines but savages can run amok to loot rob and burn shit up. And crimesha doesn't enforce curfews. It's amazing how gullible people are to view these under qualified politicians in a positive light.
500 people isn't even statistically significant in the world of polling. When Gallup does a poll, it's a minimum of 1000 people.
Other questions to ask:
* What's the polled demographic?
* How'd they control for bias?
* What questions were asked of those being polled?
* What communication methods were used to conduct the poll? Online? Telephone? Mail in?
* What's the contact list compiled from?
Regardless, this whole thing is horseshit. EVERYONE I've talked to all over the City at all levels of income think that Groot is a one term mayor because she let the riots run rampant.
Lackey runs a poll but doesn’t include who was polled and why, and won’t release data.
Get her spirits up. Half dozen bystander kids under 13 gunned down in a matter of days and Larri needs a morale boost?
Thanks McGrath. Can you poll Booby Rush next?
On top of all that nonsense, Looney Larri was moaning about the lakefront beaches a dangerous place to be....Because there are No Lifeguards.
Face mask priorities. Restaurant and bars threatened with lockdown and big fines.
Said; “I don’t want to shut you down, but if you make me...I will.”
The manic runt fart can’t keep her wits in order.
No word on Larri using her managerial skills to cut out a deal to open the Cook Co Dart jail for the weekend.
Where else besides the chief's office can you find a captive audience to poll.
All you need to know was the sentence poll taken by Lightfoot pollster. Turd just trying to keep his job. More fake news that the local rags will tout.
Can Mayor BugEyes actually buy a house where all the streets are named after Indian tribes?Now, kees me you fool!!!!

- No, no need um toad. Alphabet street better, easy to spell on holiday card. No kees for you.
I don't believe polls or the main stream media
Even releasing this shows how desperate and stupid she is. Of course the great papers of Chicago would never think to ask questions or be critical.
The poll was conducted outside of a weed dispensary.
