FEC Rejects D’s Complaint Vs. Risch
The Federal Election Commission has dismissed a complaint made against Sen. Jim Risch, R-
Idaho, by the Idaho Democratic Party raising questions about violations of federal election law during the 2008 campaign. Last September, as Risch faced former Democratic Rep. Larry LaRocco, Democrats questioned whether Risch’s campaign was improperly using his Boise law office. Their complaint questioned whether expenses such as rent, overhead and staff salaries were properly reported to the FEC. But the FEC said it dismissed the matter “in light of the complainants’ failure to include any substantiation for their allegations in the complaint.” The bipartisan commission voted 6-0 in June to dismiss the complaint/
