Here's some strange news...
Found in a meth house in Colorado were files on 23 conservative candidates for Montana state legislature. The files consisted of surveys and mailers, as well as some finance details, with one folder labelled "Montana $ Bomb."
Found in a meth house in Colorado were files on 23 conservative candidates for Montana state legislature. The files consisted of surveys and mailers, as well as some finance details, with one folder labelled "Montana $ Bomb."
The documents pointed to one outside group pulling the candidates' strings: a social welfare nonprofit called Western Tradition Partnership, or WTP.
Altogether, the records added up to possible illegal "coordination" between the nonprofit and candidates for office in 2008 and 2010, said a Montana investigator and a former Federal Election Commission chairman who reviewed the material. Outside groups are allowed to spend money on political campaigns, but not to coordinate with candidates.
