Murray, KY – The former head of the Jefferson County Teacher's Association has filed a complaint against the Kentucky gubernatorial campaign of David Williams and Richie Farmer. Steve Neal believes the Republican slate illegally spent money on their campaign before filing a letter of intent to run for office.
"I looked up the law, and it reads pretty clear to me that you can't expend money for a slate before you file your letter of intent with the registry."
Neal is calling for an investigation by the Kentucky Registry of Election Finance. Williams-Farmer campaign manager Scott Jennings says the complaint is without merit and Neal just has an ax to grind because the Kentucky Senate last year refused to consider Neal's appointment to the state school board.
