A couple of Chicago mayoral race polling results from last month have been stuck in my head ever since they were released.
The BSP Research poll, taken March 15-23 for Northwestern University’s Center for the Study of Diversity and Democracy, found the two mayoral runoff candidates were running neck-and-neck. The poll was almost universally ignored by the city’s news media, yet it might’ve possibly contained an important nugget which could help explain at least part of Brandon Johnson’s win and Paul Vallas’ loss.
