the turd ‘rat Minnesota A.G. Lori Swanson did the same thing (and unfortunately just got re-elected)
In a May 12, 2008, letter to Swanson, Nobles writes:
“The judgment was signed by you, as Solicitor General … [and] provided for the distribution of money to the Legal Aid Society ($250,000), the Minnesota Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now — ACORN — ($249,999) and the state of Minnesota.”
What caught Nobles’ interest here is that the complaint was settled for $749,999, perhaps in coincidence with a state statute that says any settlements of $750,000 or more go to individuals or the state. Anything less can be divvied up in other ways — in this case, the money going to those three entities. But Nobles further notes:
“It is alleged that the distribution of money to Minnesota ACORN was connected to ACORN’s endorsement of Mike Hatch for governor on March 8, 2006. Please address the allegation and explain the basis of distribution of $249,999 to ACORN, a political advocacy organization.”
