“WSIL — When it comes to politics it all comes down to the money. At least that’s what many big political donors are banking on.
‘It’s a fact of life: you’re never going to get away from the money,’ says Bill Murphy.
Like other voters, he say it’s obvious how much money goes into state politics. Just turn on your TV, computer or drive down the block.
Senator Gary Forby points to the funding his opponent Dale Fowler has received.
‘All he does is put out his hand and the governor gives him an open check,’ he claims.
According to the Illinois Campaign for Political Reform website, Fowler got more than $200,000 from the Republican State Senate Campaign Committee.”
