House Files Complaint Against Democrat Challenger

House Republicans filed a complaint Monday with the Federal Election Commission against the Biscoe school teacher who came close to unseating Rep. Robin Hayes, R-N.C.

The National Republican Campaign Committee said Larry Kissell’s campaign filings “show a pattern of inaccuracies and misrepresentations.”

“Kissell’s debt magically disappears, then reappears with no rhyme or reason as to how debt was paid or created,” according to the complaint, signed by Elizabeth Beacham, chief counsel to the House GOP’s political arm. “At a time when voters demand transparency of elected officials, Kissell’s reports reflect a candidate who either a) is hiding something from the public, or b) is clearly incapable of filing accurate FEC reports.”

I don’t know much about Kissell, but he was supported by the Progressive Patriots Fund, which is chaired by Russ Feingold, so that pretty much tells you all you need to know.
