GAO Report On Campaign Finance Sparks Partisan Reply
The Finance Committee to Re-Elect the President called the GAO report inaccurate and incomplete noting it omits information presented during hearings. It cites legal opinions and actions by committee members as approved, and claims the alleged $89,000 in question flowed through designated agents and banks, with possible mixing of personal funds. Nixon and McGovern held weekend stances with no comment on the GAO findings.
