Duffy Picks Up Another $8,100

In the furiously fought 26th state senate race to replace Bill Peterson, Republican Dan Duffy has reported receiving an additional $8,117.

Considering the bad publicity in both the Daily Herald and the Northwest Herald that his opponent Round Lake Mayor Bill Gentes has gotten for not telling the truth about having been let go by the Realtor Association of NorthWest Chicagoland, seeing $5,000 from the Illinois Association of Realtors go to his opponent must have galled Gentes.

Gentes did write a letter of apology.

In addition, Chris Reyes of Rosemont donated $2,500 and the Health Care Council of Illinois Politic paid Joe Cook of Wauconda $717 for consulting services and mileage.

The story with Bill Gentes’ big eyes comes from Round Lake Area School Board member Guy Finley’s blog, Stay the Course. Finley had a different “big eyes”-illustrated story yesterday.

  1. Looks like the Republican’s have more money than the Democrats. Duffy gets infused with 200K, while Gentes only gets 75K from the respective parties.
    Duffy is taking his ads straight from the Rove playbook…lie because no one challenges you.
    Duffy has taken form the railroads…..how does one tell the voter I do not support the CN railroad to one group and gladyly accepts money from the railroad with hand behind back.

    Beware of the wolf is sheep’s clothing.
