Conway Campaign Calls Paul Contributions Disturbing
KENTUCKY....
Democrat Jack Conway’s U.S. Senate campaign is calling for Republican Rand Paul to return some $1,400 in campaign contributions from three people that a Conway staffer labeled “white supremacists.” Conway spokesman John Collins said Friday the contributions that ranged from $400 to $500 were disturbing. Paul campaign manager Jesse Benton said 35,000 people have made contributions to the Bowling Green eye surgeon’s race. He said staffers couldn’t possibly do background checks on every donor. Benton wouldn’t say Friday whether the campaign would return the contributions.
Conway and Paul are running for a Senate seat now held by Republican Jim Bunning, a northern Kentuckian who finishes his second term this year.
