Feds flag Arizona senator for excessive campaign donations [Martha Mc$ally (r)]

Arizona Sen. Martha McSally, whose fundraising practices have drawn scrutiny in the past, appears to have accepted more than $270,000 in excessive campaign contributions during the recent midterm campaign, according to the Federal Election Commission.

Federal candidates can collect $2,700 from a single donor during a primary election, followed by an additional $2,700 from the same person during the general election.

But the federal agency flagged dozens of contributions to McSally from more than 60 donors that appear to exceed those limits, including one who cut a $10,000 check during the general election alone, according to an analysis of FEC records. The agency said in a letter on Tuesday that McSally has until early March to correct any record-keeping issues, or refund the money.

If the Rethugs had any class at all, they would have allowed a Democrat to be appointed. But hey, I don't suppose you can expect class from vermin.
