Barack Obama's getting lots of heat for what appear to be hundreds of clearly false small dollar donations reported by his campaign and for not disclosing all of its donors. (Federal law requires disclosure only of donations -- cumulatively or singly -- of more than $200).
Well, someone with way too much time on their hands was looking through McCain's primary donor database and discovered entires like:
| Anonymous, Anonymous | Anonymous | XX | 99999 | $10.00 | 3/6/2007 |
Try it yourself.
There are also many obviously fraudulent zip codes -- 99999 is one -- and donors from other countries...like China.
The point isn't that McCain is violating election law... it's that, with hundreds of thousands of donors, compliance is just really not that easy. That foes for McCain...but especially for Obama and his millions of donors. Both campaigns have full-time compliance staffs....but it's tough for ten people to pour through millions of donors....
