Democrats say Roberts IV ad breaks campaign law
Kansas Democrats allege that Senator Pat Roberts violated a federal campaign finance rule with a new TV ad. They filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission, arguing the spot lacks the required paid-for disclaimer and features a crowd obscuring Roberts at the outset. Roberts’s camp dismissed the move as a political tactic as the race tightens with Jim Slattery challenging in the August primary.
