The state's "campaign spending commission" met today to decide how to handle a complaint against gubernatorial candidate Vicky Cayetano's campaign.
HONOLULU (KITV-4) The state's campaign spending commission met on Wednesday to consider a complaint filed against Vicky Cayetano’s campaign. There is a limit on how much a person can donate to a candidate.
But super PACS - or political action committees - are free to spend as much as they want on third party ads in support or against certain people running for office. The complaint alleges there was coordination with attack ads focused on Josh Green, who is running for governor.
That coordination is prohibited by law. The complaint before the campaign spending commission on Wednesday claimed several large donors for a super PAC - known as victory calls 2022, donated to Vicky Cayetano in her bid for Governor.
Gary Kam- General Counsel, State Campaign Spending Commission, "These two complaints are basically identical in their allegations except for the respondent’s name. The complaints allege that there was coordination in the expenditures between the Vicky Cayetano for Governor committee and a super pac called victory calls 2022”
Neal Milner, KITV-4 political analyst, "The law is written in a way, it’s a federal law that creates all kinds of opportunities for wiggle room you have to show the closeness of the candidates to the pac giving the money that’s hard to do." “What it might do, and I say might is sway some people’s minds. That a lot of these ads and counter ads are doing at this stage. “
The campaign spending commission is requesting more information from Christian West who filed the complaint, be given to them by Friday so it can further investigate his claims. Neal Milner says even if it turns out, the Campaign Spending Commission agrees with West, this will probably happen after the primary election and will not have much of an impact.
