Bruce Rauner’s team is announcing his transition team.

And the Republican who spent upward of $65 million getting elected said the transition committee “is also committed to disclosing and capping all contributions to the effort. More details about the transition will be announced in the near future.”

“I am committed to assembling a diverse and talented team to drive results for our state and bring back Illinois,” the Rauner statement said. “There is no one better prepared to help me achieve our administration’s goals than Evelyn. She has been my partner throughout this campaign and will continue that role as we prepare to take office.”

From the campaign:

“I look forward to working with the Governor-elect to build an administration that reflects our state’s diversity and is prepared to lead on Day One,” Evelyn Sanguinetti said.
