Previously: Campaign Finance: HRCC – throw it against the wall and see if it sticks (May 1, 2012)

Today, at the Missouri Ethics Commission:

C001135 05/01/2012 JAY NIXON FOR MISSOURI Fred Palmer 57 Fair Oaks Drive Saint Louis MO 63124 Peabody Energy Senior VP of Government Relations 4/29/2012 $5,000.00

[emphasis added]

That’s $10,000.00 to the House Republican Campaign Committee (HRCC) and $5,000.00 to Governor Jay Nixon (D) in the last few days. This does not compute.

By the way, is there another $5,000.00? Just asking.
