A majority of Chicagoans believe Mayor Brandon Johnson is being irresponsible and uncollaborative in the ongoing budget talks, according to the findings of a public opinion poll commissioned by a group of the city's alders.

In the poll, a total of 800 Chicagoans were asked a dozen questions about city leadership, finances, and ways to balance the budget.

As members of the Chicago City Council have heard opposition to a potential property tax hike to close a nearly $1 billion budget gap for 2025, a group of alderpeople commissioned a poll to gauge the views of their constituents.
