"Rauner campaigned in 2014 on ridding Illinois' government of cronyism, and he frequently excoriates Pritzker and House Speaker Michael Madigan on that subject.
Laura Durkin's last job was in office furniture sales in 2001, the Daily Herald reported; tollway leaders contend she was the most qualified person for the $80,000-a-year engineering department job. The tollway also has a $6.6 million subcontract with Morreale Communications as part of a larger engineering contract. The firm is led by CEO Kim Morreale, who is married to Chicago's only Republican state representative, Michael McAuliffe. Tollway officials say they follow state procurement laws and the Morreale firm was hired on its merits."

High cancer risk in southeast DuPage County linked to company co-owned by Rauner's former firm....
No love lost between Rauner and Durkins especially now as their dirty laundry is getting some light shining on it.
