Bloomington, IL -(Effingham Radio)- State Farm Insurance is ending a years-old battle over campaign collusion accusations.
The Bloomington-based insurance giant yesterday announced a preliminary, 250 million-dollar settlement in the case related to the 2004 Illinois Supreme Court election of Lloyd Karmeier.
The settlement came the same day that a trial into a 10 billion-dollar lawsuit in the case was set to begin.
