Campaign coffers boosted Dunn Poshard 1984 campaigns
Illinois Senate races in 1984 drew heavy funding as Dunn and Poshard won seats in the 58th and 59th districts. Dunn raised about $60,000 with major GOP support and a $9,700 large donation days before the election, while Poshard gathered $77,277 with PAC help and loans of $10,000. Both campaigns benefited from party committees, unions, and key lawmakers, reflecting a costly battle for a Democratic Senate majority.
