“Democrat J.B. Pritzker and Republican incumbent Bruce Rauner will square off this fall in the general election for Illinois governor. Each pumped millions into their campaigns to win primary races. Their return on investment shows just how costly this race will be.
Rauner narrowly won his party’s primary, but he was far ahead in the amount of money raised. The first-term governor raised $215 per vote, and his challenger Jeanne Ives just $12 per vote. Ives wound up with roughly 49 percent support among those who cast ballots.
Colin Williams of the Illinois Campaign for Political Reform said Ives faced an uphill battle, showing money matters.”
