Jeb Bush “is under growing pressure to acknowledge what to some voters and a number of campaign finance lawyers seems obvious: He is running for president,” the New York Times reports.
“The lawyers say Mr. Bush, a former Florida governor, is stretching the limits of election law by crisscrossing the country, hiring a political team and raising tens of millions of dollars at fund-raisers, all without declaring — except once, by mistake — that he is a candidate. Some election experts say Mr. Bush passed the legal threshold to be considered a candidate months ago, even if he has not formally acknowledged it.”
