Ehrlich In Campaign Finance Shenanigans

Yet another Republican runs afoul of the law.

Gov. Robert Ehrlich returned more than $540,000 in political contributions to the Republican Party after state elections officials discovered that a federal account was used to funnel funds to his re-election campaign.

A letter from the State Board of Elections, obtained by The Sun newspaper, said use of the federal account to pay for the governor’s re-election effort allowed Ehrlich to receive large sums of in-kind contributions from the state party by bypassing the $4,000 donation cap set by state law.
