An organization founded by Kelly Tshibaka after she lost a U.S. Senate bid violated state law when it failed to report its income and spending, state watchdogs say.
A sign directs voters to the polls at Government Hill Elementary School in Anchorage on Tuesday, Nov. 8, 2022. that an organization founded by former U.S. Senate candidate Kelly Tshibaka violated state campaign ethics regulations by advocating for an anti-ranked choice voting ballot measure seeking to overturn the state’s new voting laws without registering with the state and publicly reporting its spending.
The staff report, which now goes to the full commission, could mean that Preserve Democracy will be required to register with the state and report its funding sources and expenditures. Until now, the organization’s funding has remained opaque, because it was founded as a nonprofit corporation, allowing it to conceal its donors and the ways it has spent its funds.
In a response submitted by attorney Matthew Singer, who is representing Tshibaka, he wrote that the commission “should not be used as a stool to silence debate on important political topics.” “The next step if the commission gets it wrong would be to appeal matter to the Superior Court and the state supreme court if necessary,” Singer said.
