State Removes Raul’s Campaign Site

An article on the website Daily Kos today charges that Idaho’s official state website is being improperly used to drum up donations to GOP Rep. Raul Labrador. The article notes that a list of links to news for various government officials, including Idaho’s congressional delegation, links to their official page of press releases – except for Labrador’s, which links to his campaign site. The page that pops up has a prominent red button saying, “DONATE TODAY.” Jon Hanian, press secretary for Idaho Gov. Butch Otter, when informed of the link by a reporter this morning, said, “I would imagine it’s probably just a mistake,” but clicking on the link on his computer, he said, “That’s definitely a campaign site”/ Betsy Russell ,  Eye on Boise.
