I’m surprised that it’s illegal for a Democrat to do this. I mean, I understand why it’s illegal for a Republican, but this guy is a Democrats — and he’s being prosecuted??
Sounds like they got him for “hiding the payment”.
Maybe he didn’t pay taxes on it or something.
Is it actually illegal for a campaign to use funds to pay an opponent to drop out.
In any event, this guy was a judge. How many bribes did he take while on the bench?
