campaign finance rules

Hilario Dominguez, a candidate for Chicago school board president, faces a state complaint from challenger Hugo Jacobo alleging campaign finance violations. The complaint claims Dominguez's campaign committee, Friends of Hilario, submitted inaccurate filings reporting no funds raised or spent. Dominguez's campaign treasurer stated compliance will be addressed in future reports.

A Supreme Court decision has loosened campaign finance rules, allowing national GOP committees to spend freely in coordination with candidates like Paxton to address fundraising deficits. This change could benefit Paxton in his Senate race.
