Pennsylvania Attorney General Indicts Four More State Employees for Using Public Resources on Campaigns

On December 15, the Pennsylvania Attorney General indicted four more Pennsylvania public employees or officials connected with the state legislature, for using public resources to help on election campaigns. One of those indicted is a legislator, Bill DeWeese, who is the House Democratic whip and who has been a Speaker of the House in the past. See this story.

These indictments are in addition to others announced earlier this year. Part of the political work done by public employees was working on petition challenges to the Green Party statewide petition in 2006, and the Ralph Nader petition in 2004.

  2. Who are the four??? There were only three… You people can’t get anything right. Why don’t you start asking why the attorney general has had hundreds of phone calls from his own campaign staff to his state paid satff?? how about why he has taken so long and hasn’t even touched the senate yet? How about asking him how he lost his first case? Why don’t you ask him how he has the nerve to charge someone with campaigning on the job while he himself is out campaigning everyday while we are paying him to be attorney general?? This whole “investigation” is a sham designed to generate headlines for his gubanatorial campaign.
