Last January this Democrat candidate was begging for money on Facebook:
.
According to the Illinois Board of Elections, his campaign treasurer is Abby Scott – wife of Democrat candidate Corey Beirne: https://www.elections.il.gov/CampaignDisclosure/CommitteeDetail.aspx?ID=9QquPh013NVHggvFpapUFg%3d%3d
.
.
If you see John Poling, ask him if he knows his Treasurer transferred $1000 to her husband’s campaign on October 1st: https://illinoissunshine.org/committees/38834/
If you donated to John Poling is transferring your money to another candidate okay? Beirne can’t raise money himself?
Polling is a “paper candidate” put up to run by Abby Scott and other progressive local DSA activists. This guy is funded by Union leadership that just saw he was running as a Democrat. His campaign manager is shared with Sharon Chung.
Weird that his treasurer is the wife of a candidate he sent such a large campaign fund to. I mean wow. Like let’s not make it any more obvious.
