Chicago's issues, ranked by people instead of politicians. City and ward-based discussion where neighbors decide what matters most.
Hold officials accountable: ask them anything in their AMA, and the community judges whether they really answered. Every official gets a grade from their residents' approval and their answers.
Your guide to the upcoming elections: every race on the November 3 ballot, including all 61 judges up for retention with bar association ratings, Congress, the state legislature, Cook County, and the school board. With the dates and places to vote and a reminder before each deadline.
Verify your address, and every vote shows two counts: all users and verified users. So you can see what your neighbors in your ward actually think.
