Who Runs Chicago

Crain’s Chicago Business has a great website up that breaks down all of Mayor Daley’s donors by zip code, occupation, and employer. In this last cycle he’s raised $903,500 from just 42 people with the occupation of “Chairman.” That’s an average donation of $21,512. And you wonder whose concerns get priority in the city that works.

Christopher Hayes is the Washington, D.C. Editor of The Nation.
