While there incorrectly categorized PAC money above, below is where such contributions are supposed to be entered:

  • $2,500 – Chicago Auto Trade PAC of Chicago Auto Trade Assn., Oakbrook
  • $546 – Committee to Elect Michael W. Tryon
  • $500 – IL League of Financial Institutions Political Education Com, Springfield

Althoff spent $20,700 in her campaign fund on other politicians.

A whooping $20,000 was transferred to the Republican State Senate Campaign. That’s probably a requirement for being on the Senate Republican Leadership Team.

Matching Mike Tryon’s contribution, $500 went to Citizens for Joe Gottemoller. Gottemoller is running for the McHenry County Board.
