Cook County Board Pres Contribution Maps, 2
Todd Stroger has still not filed his "D-2" report, detailing contributions since summer of last year. The below maps were generated with the latest D-2s, looking at contributions since last June through a couple days ago.
The Toni Preckwinkle and Terry O'Brien campaigns have been the most fervent fundraisers, with both geographic diversity (though O'Brien is notably absent on the South Side and South Suburbs) and concentrated geographic bases. O'Brien has clear pockets of strength on the Northwest Side and interior Northwest Suburbs. Preckwinkle dominates the Lakefront from the South Shore through Rogers Park. The geographic diversity of Preckwinkle's contributions are significant given her narrow base in Hyde Park and Kenwood.
One quirk: donations from the further out Northwest Suburbs such as Streamwood and Schaumburg were sparse and predominately for courts clerk Dorothy Brown and specifically from South Asian donors, based on the names of the contributors.
Click on the maps to expand them. Please note that several dozen contributions were unmappable out of a total of nearly three thousand.
