Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx is under fire for potential campaign finance violations, with a watchdog group filing a complaint against her with the Illinois State Board of Elections.
The complaint alleges that Foxx’s campaign committee did not properly disclose who paid for a party held at the luxurious Peninsula hotel in Chicago last October. The committee reportedly failed to disclose more than $50,000 in donations related to the event.
Foxx’s campaign spokesperson defended the event as a routine fundraiser, saying that they would fully cooperate with any investigation into the matter. However, opponents of the State’s Attorney have called for a more thorough review of Foxx’s campaign finances.
The Illinois State Board of Elections has yet to make a decision on whether to investigate the complaint further. Foxx, who is up for re-election next year, will have to navigate these allegations as she campaigns for another term as Cook County State’s Attorney.
