NC GOP, Dems file dueling complaints with state board of elections
CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) - The North Carolina Republican Party (NCGOP) and the North Carolina Democratic Party (NCDP) have filed complaints against one another with the North Carolina State Board of Elections (NCSBE).
The NCGOP claims Democratic gubernatorial candidate Roy Cooper, the North Carolina Democrat Committee, Public Policy Polling, Red Ventures and The Charlotte Observer violated state campaign finance law through the giving and acceptance of improper campaign contributions.
According to the NCSBE, the sworn complaint was delivered to the office of Executive Director Kim Westbrook Strach Tuesday evening. The NCGOP complaint came after a complaint was filed by NCDP over money laundering accusations.
The basis of the complaint is a forum being hosted by The Charlotte Observer Wednesday evening called "The Truth about HB2." The forum is sponsored by local business Red Ventures.
