Millionaire Chicago Mayoral candidate Willie Wilson launched a unique campaign strategy over the weekend, literally handing out cash to supporters at a church in the Windy City’s South Side neighborhood.
According to WGN News, the businessman was joined by sitting Illinois Governor Bruce Rauner as the two doled out over $300,000 to 2,000 people as part of the Dr. Willie Wilson Foundation, a non-profit organization.
“My wife and I have been blessed by God to be able to get a few of the material things out of life and so it’s up to us to now continually to share back with all of you all and others,” said Wilson.
“Wilson’s campaign spokesman insists today’s appearance was not campaign related. But Chicago politicos on both sides of the aisle raised concerns about the event,” writes WGN.
