Patrick Ryan says:

“This poll is significant in that it indicates the continued and growing enthusiasm of Chicago area residents for bringing the Games to our city, and it is encouraging to see the continued support by Chicagoans for the Olympic Movement despite the recent controversy. One of Chicago’s greatest strengths is its passionate sports fans . As we move forward with the bidding process, the excitement of our city will be a major asset.”
