Attorney general candidate Margaret Donnelly today called on state Sen. Chris Koster to return donations from wealthy Republican donor Rex Sinquefield.
Donnelly and former House Democratic Leader Jeff Harris have previously both called on Koster to return Sinqufield's donation. Sinquefield, founder of the Show Me Institute, is a self-proclaimed school choice advocate.
From Donnelly's press release earlier today:
State Rep. Margaret Donnelly and candidate for Attorney General, called on Chris Koster to return all contributions received from Republican billionaire and Blunt crony Rex Sinquefield.
"Now that Chris Koster has finally agreed to follow the law and return all contributions over the voter imposed limits, its time for him to return his sham contributions from the Republican money machines," said Donnelly. "If you are running in a Democratic primary, you should not be financed by a Blunt administration crony whose agenda is to end public education."
Koster has received hundreds of thousands of dollars in questionable bundled contributions from Blunt ally Rex Sinquefield. These contributions were washed through campaign committees with the clear intent of circumventing campaign finance laws.
"Candidates for Attorney General should be held to a higher ethical standard. His actions and those of his supporters should raise serious doubts amongst Democratic voters," concluded Donnelly.
