Illinois fairgrounds foundation falls short of fundraising goal
Springfield foundation formed by Governor Rauner to fund repairs to the state fairgrounds reports 2017 income just over $32,000. Chairman John Slayton calls it slower than hoped, noting donor education and concerns about fund use. Some major donors already gave to the governor’s mansion. Rauner’s office says he will contribute personally in due time.
