Members of the Arizona Citizens Clean Elections Commission board decided Thursday that there was reason to believe a group that ran a TV ad claiming Republican gubernatorial nominee Kari Lake was soft on the border violated election laws.
But, the Freedom's Future Fund ad suggested she wanted lax border control because she donated money to President Barack Obama and not to President Donald Trump.Collins had reached a preliminary conclusion that the ad amounted to political advocacy. The meeting Thursday gave the appointed board members a chance to vote on whether to accept that conclusion.
Spies said the question before the board was whether there was a plausible rationale for the ad other than political advocacy. If there was, he said, the board had to allow the group its First Amendment right to speak its mind over the air. “How many other campaigns have you undertaken nationwide against former TV journalists who have not been on the air as TV journalists for several years?” he asked.
