Responding to a moderator’s question at a recent political forum in Barrington, Democratic state representative candidate Mary Edly-Allen said campaigns should be limited to $100,000 in contributions and lamented her opponent’s spending on “very expensive” mailers and television commercials.
But soon after portraying herself as a financial underdog, money began flowing to Edly-Allen.
Campaign finance records culled by Illinois Sunshine show Edly-Allen has received $290,726 in contributions since the Oct. 6 forum, dwarfing the haul of Republican state Rep. Helene Miller Walsh.
