Campaign Finance and the Internet

Blue Collar Muse has thoughts on the subject.

Per Drew Rawlins, Executive Director of the Tennessee Registry of Election Finance, in Tennessee a PAC cannot give a Senate candidate over $15,000; half in the primary and half in the general. ActBlue is clearly over that limit.

I don’t suggest ActBlue willfully broke a law. I’m suggesting old laws may be insufficient to address ActBlue’s actions.

Old laws, new technology. Clever folks will always find a way to exploit that. The thing is, you really can't see how the exploit will work until after it's happened.

Then, of course, you have to adapt (change) the law, and you know how easy that is.
