Looks kosher to me
Some more Katherine Harris news.
Harris Takes $100K From Campaign To Renovate Home
(AP) TALLAHASSEE Katherine Harris has taken back $100,000 of the $3.5 million dollars she gave her campaign for Senate. The reason: she's finishing renovating her home in Washington, D.C.
The Harris campaign says the Republican congresswoman would sell the house, if necessary, to fund her embattled Senate race.
The campaign announced Harris repaid some of the money she already gave the campaign in a press release detailing fund-raising for the three months ending June 30th.
The campaign says Harris has raised $1.1 million dollars in donations during the quarter. By comparison, Democratic Senator Bill Nelson raised $2.5 million dollars in the same quarter.
The announcement comes the same week Harris lost much of her core campaign staff for the second time since getting in the race last summer. Her campaign manage resigned after three months on the job, saying Harris was uncontrollable.
Did Harris do anything wrong? Maybe I'm not up on all ethics rules, but here I don't think so. Remember I'm not a fan of the congresswoman.
1- She loaned her campaign 3.5 million
2- She renovated her home with $100,000 out of her campaign money, saying it was a return on her loan.
3- Harris reported these transactions.
So what is the news here? Just an opportunity for a half truth headline and to regurgitate Harris' other problems? Looks like it to me.
