Ives Receives $2M from Uihlein in Governor’s Race

February 4, 2018 - The Ives for Illinois campaign is pleased to announce it has received a $2 million donation from businessman Dick Uihlein. These funds will support and ensure that Jeanne Ives is able to introduce herself to the GOP primary electorate and present a clear choice for those voters between the crony bailouts and extreme Left social policy agenda of Gov. Rauner's and the conservative reform policy record and vision of Ives.

Ives has now raised more than $3.5 million in the few short weeks of her insurgent campaign against Gov. Rauner.

"Mr. Uihlein's commitment to a conservative reform policy revolution is humbling as is the commitment of of every donor and volunteer to our campaign," said Ives. "People doing what they can with what they have is how we win this race for the people who play by the rules and do their part to make Illinois a great place to live, work and raise a family. A state government aligned with their interests is long overdue in Illinois."
