FILE - In this Jan. 7, 2014 file photo, venture capitalist Bruce Rauner, a candidate for the Republican nomination for Illinois governor, listens to comments from guests during a campaign stop at a restaurant in Carbondale, Ill. When Rauner announced plans last year to run for governor of Illinois, it was clear this wouldn’t be the kind of race the state was accustomed to. Rauner, who made $53 million in 2012 but portrays himself as an everyman in a Carhartt jacket who loves hunting and fishing, is attempting to join the list of Republican business executives who have won office in recent years with no previous elective experience. He is considered the heavy favorite in the four-way GOP primary. (AP Photo/The Southern, Steve Matzker, File)

FILE - This April 5, 2012, file photo shows the Tamms Correctional Center in Tamms, Ill. When it comes to the state's prisons, the four Republican candidates for governor including state Sens. Kirk Dillard and Bill Brady, state Treasurer Dan Rutherford, and venture capitalist Bruce Rauner, agree they're overcrowded, but none has a clear, short-term solution. They generally oppose building new lockups, according to their responses to an Associated Press questionnaire about prison policy. All but Rauner said they will at least consider reopening the closed super-maximum security lockup in Tamms, in far southern Illinois. (AP Photo/The Southern Illinoisan, Steve Jahnke, File)
