Ohio Treasurer Josh Mandel was another political recipient of contributions from E. Holt
from Cleveland.com 6/22/15....."But Mandel cannot return the money, a spokesman maintained....Earl Holt donated $1,500 to the Senate campaign in 2012. The money he donated was spent over two and a half years ago so it cannot be refunded." But Mandel, who manages Ohio's public funds, appears to view this as a matter of strict accounting for specific sums at specific times: When Holt's money came in, it was spent almost immediately on Mandel's Senate campaign. The surplus left after the election came from other donations. Mandel's treasury from that campaign still has $49,694 in the bank, according to its April report to the Federal Election Commission. It would be permissible under federal campaign finance law to use that money for a donation to an outside group or charity, according to a number of people involved in political campaigns. That's exactly what some other politicians are doing." ( for the record, I did tweak the order of the paragraphs from the article).
So why was a fairly innocuous politician getting money from racists?
Hey Josh, thanks! wanna bet this comes up when you run for your next attempt @ political office.
