   From the article —

   “Professor Timothy Krebs, a political scientist who specializes in the study of urban politics at the University of New Mexico, said it’s not unusual to see the development community spend such significant money on a mayoral race. That’s because city officials routinely make decisions about zoning and infrastructure that have a direct effect on the profitability of their companies, he said.”

   If you truly want to limit the inflow of money into politics, especially “dark money,” then limit government’s power over and intrusiveness into the private sector.
