Campaigncash46

Here are the 50 political committees that received the most money from contributions during January, according to the Illinois State Board of Elections.

Donations made to political groups or candidates must be disclosed under state law for greater transparency in elections. While Congress created the Federal Election Commission to oversee federal elections in 1974, each state is left to regulate its local elections.
