I was searching our vast database of emojis to help Axios co-founder Mike Allen find the right Chicago emoji for our announcement of Axios House at the DNC.

Reality check: There really isn't a good one for Chicago. No flag, no Sears Tower, not even Malort?

Zoom in: We actually argued over what emoji to give Mike. Should it be 🍕 or 🌭 or how about 🍺?

State of play: We've collected the emojis we've argued over into one poll. From here on out, the winner will be our default emoji for Chicago.
