Davison County GOP playing in the primaries? UPDATE: Primaries is plural…

This is an interesting item in District 9 Primary Candidate Megan Tschetter’s campaign finance report:

No, not the $1000 from Majority Leader Scott Odenbach and his Liberty Tree PAC, as he tries to pick his membership.. But the $250 from the Davison County Republicans Central Committee. They absolutely should not be playing in primaries.

That’s what the former 32-year Democrat in charge of the Republican Party said. (not that he follows his own rule):

 

not appropriate for the party to influence the election process.”  I would certainly think that would include donating to candidates.

UPDATE: 

Here’s another instance where they donated $250 to a candidate in the primary – Tim Begalka, running in a contested primary in District 4 – a district no where near their own..

  1. Well now I know im voting for Zach Mulder idk who else I am voting for yet but he is the only candidate/team that took time to talk to me at my door and actually care about district 9 and not break rules to get ahead.

    1. I have a feeling there are going to be several county gop boards that have contributed to local or even statewide candidates. If that’s the case the executive boards should be held accountable and immediately resign.

      1. Neither will happen. Accountability is not a word in the vocabulary of the current office holders in any GOP entity of the state. And they wonder why they can’t raise funds.

  2. Not surprising to me. They want insanity to stay in district 9 so they will do whatever it takes to win even if its going agaisnt their own party.

    Their hands have been caught in the cookie jar!!

    1. I don’t know who the treasurer is now. But I do know the address seen in the report is incorrect as it’s the address of the previous treasurer.

      1. 1220 W 23rd is where Robert Morano lives, he is the Treasurer. Wonder how much they donated to those actually running in Davison County? That would be $0.

  3. With or without it, Tschetter will win that primary, along with the incumbent. Randy Bury is well qualified, but has described himself as pro-choice, and Mulder is too young and inexperienced. Neither is conservative enough to win in that district. Reserve your campaign contributions for campaigns that can actually win and make a difference.

    1. How is Schetter any more qualified? Mulder definitely has a lot more experience from what Ive seen working for people and actually making progress within his community that are still conservative policies

      1. Please read my post again, as I didn’t say Tschetter was more qualified. I said she would win it. Winning elections often doesn’t have much to do with qualifications.

  4. This is going to happen across the whole state. If the county party didn’t write a direct check, you will find that they funneled money to certain candidates through an alternative pathway.
