Yes: One is Ken Griffin, the top billionaire around here; Chicago
Magazine loves to report on what his house looks like and what he
likes to do on vacations. Apparently he poured lots of dough into
Bruce Rauner's campaign for governor (Republican) but also Rahm
Emanuel's campaign for mayor (Democrat), because he opposed the
teacher's union.

Excellent NYT article here:
