I NEVER SAW THIS COMING (INSERT SARCASM HERE!)
A complaint has been filed against the Barack Obama campaign by Harrison County GOP Chairman and blogger Scott Fluhr. Fluhr alleges that when the Obama campaign gave out free tickets to this past weekend’s Dave Matthew’s concert that it was violating Indiana law by “giving something of value” in exchange for someone voting or registering to vote.
Good luck.
I already did the research on this when I heard the concert was being announced. Fluhr would have to prove that the people went out and registered to vote or voted because of the concert.
Good luck.
Events like this happen all the time. If a candidate has a cookout, the food has value. If they give out candy, it has something of value. If the Barack people were giving out cash or free TVs, that would be different.
From my understanding anyone with an Indiana ID could have gotten into the concert for free. Attendees did not have to show their voter registration cards.
If you’re going to try to beat Obamamannia, you’re going to have to do better than this. Sorry, make that a whole lot better than this.
