[StBernard] Jindal to amend financial report

[Westley Annis]

Now, it's starting to get ridiculous.  Someone is filing a complaint agains
Walter because his expenditures on a media buy did not itemize which TV or
radio stations his hired consultants purchased air time.  Are you kidding
me???  Clearly, we have a lot of "little brain" people in this state who
have a lot of time on their hands.

WHO CARES????

A candidate can spend campaign funds on anything but himself.  All that
matters is if all contributions are being reported and who they are coming
from.

"...Republican Party chairman Roger Villere said he is not sure Jindal knew
about the mailers.

"If someone's looking on his, that's the wrong thing. He wouldn't be
responsible for reporting something we did," Villere said.

The state's acting ethics administrator, Kathleen Allen, said she could not
confirm that complaints have been filed against Jindal or Boasso.

Complaints are confidential unless a violation is found, she said.

Speaking generally, Allen said a candidate might have to report direct
mailers paid for by a political party if he or she helped coordinate the
content."

- - - Thank you Ms. Allen, this precisely backs up what I said in my earlier
posting.  It must be absolutely proven that Jindal had some degree of
participation in the mail out done by the state GOP, otherwise he does not
have to claim it as an in-kind contribution on his campaign compliance
report.  It might also prove right my suspicion if such a complaint was
really ever filed.
