An election watchdog group is asking for an investigation into Democratic Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe over what it says are serious campaign finance violations.
The Washington Free Beacon reported that the National Legal and Policy Center has asked the Federal Election Commission to “promptly” look into whether McAuliffe violated federal law when he accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars from a US. subsidiary of a foreign-owned company.
The Democrat in July reportedly received $350,000 from a New Jersey company called LycaTel, a subsidiary of an international corporation based in the U.K.
LycaTel is owned by a Sri Lankan and British national named Allirajah Subaskaran.
“Terry McAuliffe has a history of accepting foreign contributions. The FEC must fully investigate these serious charges that he accepted $350,000 in illegal foreign contributions for his current campaign,” NLPC lawyer Paul Kamenar said.
While a U.S.-based subsidiary can donate money to candidates, concerns arise when an international parent company could benefit from the election of a particular candidate.
“This is effectively a really easy way to launder foreign money into the U.S. political process and to avoid the FEC prohibition on foreign nationals making contributions in U.S. elections,” said Ben Freeman, director of the Foreign Influence Transparency Initiative at the Center for International Polic

Is McClinton a write-in candidate? 😃
Has the MSM and Big Tech blacked out the story yet?
Poll watchers better be vigilant and assertive, and preferably 6’4” and weigh 250 pounds. Have lawyers present or on call.
Why do I feel this is all kabuki theater, that the election will be managed off shore and McAwful has already been selected to be the VA Guvnuh? There was real cheating in the VA 2020 election so why would the treacherous bastards stop since no one has done anything to stop them or expose them to the world?
The only scandal that will keep McAwful from victory will be if Soros' dozens of ballot-delivery vans run out of gas (in the wee hours of the morning) before they get to the counting facility back doors...
The “Federal Elections Commission” and limits on campaign contributions are both unconstitutional.
The only thing that could sink McAuliffe is if he got caught promoting pedophilia....... Oh wait;;; never mind.
McAuliffe doesn’t have to “steal” the election.
The Left has a strong majority in Virginia, this talk about Youngkin winning is nonsense.
That doesn't make sense because if you do vote and get cheated, you won't have a say anyway.
I have that same feeling…..but, praying I am wrong.
Illegal ballots counted anyway....
The City of Detroit somehow counts its votes much more slowly than towns with 1,200 people and a 60 mile to the election office for the county.
Long time saying in Detroit: How many votes is the outstate counted vote lead for the Republican? Gosh, we just got in some boxes of ballots with 1,000 more than that. The Dems won after all. Tell the TV people.
Ha! Even better!!
If you vote and your vote aint counted [which has been the case lately] then what’s the point of voting? You are not addressing the voter fraud elephant in the room, you’re pretending like it’s not even there.

My private views on marriage align with yours but God is the judge and I will not consign people who believe differently outside the pale. Conservative viewpoints trump what sex someone loves. I just ask that the public square not be used to push sexuality on anyone, children especially. Private deeds not my issue. It is wrong to characterize gay marriage as a lie. It is an opinion, one that has been legalized in the USA.
There are no sites that do not occasionally get in front of their skis. GP posts links in their stories and embeds documents. I personally have seen them revise stories & reference additional information that merited revision.
Gateway Pundit informs large numbers of people about issues, urges them to contact their elected officials, speak up, get involved and encourages people by posting about others who are standing up. GP has interviewed President Trump many times & they are seventh of the top 100 Conservative sites in terms of viewership according to a prominent ranking, historically & at present.
Too much influence & ability to enable the fight against the left to dismiss out of hand.

The poster is clearly talking about the aftermath of the VA race. He or she is not telling conservatives to stay home for this particular race. After what happened in 2020 and if the vote is rigged again, why bother?
You might want to ask the Founders. They sure as Hell didn't walk through broken glass to a polling booth hoping to vote the British out.
Voter fraud will see him through.
Yes he does because Youngkin stupidly said he will accept the election results. Which means McAwful will hold back the Northeast VA counties votes until he can determine how many votes need to be ginned up.
Why do you think he hired that POS Marc Elias?
If you don’t vote, then the other side doesn’t even have to cheat.
Voting is essential in a Republic. It’s the mechanism that the framers set up as our check on government.
Not every loss is a loss due to fraud either. Sometimes the other side gets more votes. Moreover, there is an upper limit to fraud.
Throwing in the towel and surrendering isn’t a winning option in any scenario.
