Krista’s Korporate Kabal Violates Delaware Election Law

They sent out one of those mailers–you know, a ‘Call Krista and Tell Her She’s the Bestest Legislator EVER’ piece.  (Yes, I’ve seen the piece, can’t print it b/c it would reveal the recipient.)

However, oopsies, they (we can guess who ‘they’ are, and we will) did not mention who paid for the piece.  Despite the efforts of whichever Koch Bro still strides the earth, that’s still a campaign violation in Delaware.  Dark money is not yet the law in The Corporate State.

The almost-certain sponsors of this mailer?  These guys–the so-called ‘Alliance To Protect Delaware’s Future’.  Look at that Murderers’ Row Of Special Interests.

Jeez, you’d think that the law firm coordinating the whole thing would know how to ensure that whatever these corporate titans bankroll would conform to the law.  Although, perhaps they’re so used to ignoring the law that they just figured they could ignore it again.

What’s that, you say?  There’s another possibility?  It could be from the Speaker’s Slush Fund sponsored by Phil Shawe?  Why, yes, yes it could be. An inspirational quote from the Speaker:

Minor-Brown also asserted that anyone donating to the PAC will be supporting the Democratic Party broadly, and not her individually.

“They’re supporting the mission of the party,” she said. “It doesn’t mean they’re supporting my mission solely, and it doesn’t mean that I’m for sale, or bought and sold.”  

Stating the obvious, it doesn’t mean that she’s not for sale, or bought and sold’ either.  And, it resonates with the level of incompetence we’ve come to expect from this Speaker.

Anyway, I’m merely the reporter.  Someone committed an election law violation.  Will the AG or the Elections Commissioner bother to investigate, or will this just be shrugged off as more Delaware Way business as usual?

Rhetorical question, I know.
