UPDATE: I am glad to see Team Shea-Porter is not letting up:
END UPDATE
Because if he lived in a state that had campaign finance laws with teeth he might get tossed off the ballot:
Democrat Joe Garcia filed a federal lawsuit Thursday in an attempt to get his Republican opponent, state Rep. David Rivera, kicked off the November ballot. Garcia argues that recent amendments to Rivera's financial statements disqualify him from running for office. The Miami Herald reports there's a legal precedent: Last week, a judge threw a Tampa-area state Senate candidate off the ballot because he didn't list all of his personal assets.
The fact remains: logic and common sense show that the $355,000 that Frank Guinta gave to his campaign could not possibly be his, thus making it an illegal act.
And despite repeated calls from leading New Hampshire Republicans - including Jeb Bradley, his old boss and the last Republican to hold the seat he runs for, repeated calls from Democrats, and repeated calls from the media, Frank Guinta refuses to show a simple bank statement to back up his claim that the money was his to give.
It's your job between now and November 2nd to let everyone you know in the first district about this. Every person with whom I have discussed it finds it repellent and indefensible. Because it is repellent and indefensible.
