EXCLUSIVE: Ted Cruz Campaign Accuses Political Opponent Of Violating Federal Law With Chuck Schumer, Fellow Democrats

0

Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz’s campaign filed a complaint Thursday with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) against Democratic Rep. Colin Allred. The senator is claiming his opponent is operating illegally in coordination with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC).

The Daily Caller first obtained a copy of the complaint, which states that Allred and his Senate campaign are illegally coordinating with Schumer and the DSCC on television ads that exceeded the coordinated party expenditure limit, resulting in potentially millions of dollars in excessive in-kind contributions from DSCC to Allred.

The complaint specifically mentions four advertisements that the Cruz campaign believes meets the criteria for qualifying as “hybrid ads.” The campaign says that the DSCC must be held accountable for allegedly presenting an advisory opinion request to the commission under false pretenses and making representations that it now fails to abide by.

“Colin Allred’s campaign is illegally coordinating with Chuck Schumer and the DSCC. We are calling on the FEC to immediately investigate and put a stop to this flagrant violation of federal law,” a Cruz campaign spokesperson told the Daily Caller.
