Mayor Knew of Secret Campaign Funds

Washington, D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray “knew in January that associates spent money on behalf of his successful 2010 election that was not properly reported, a violation of campaign finance laws,” the Washington Post reports.

“The disclosure also comes as Gray faces mounting political pressure to make a fuller accounting of his role in the campaign. The city’s political fabric showed signs of fraying Wednesday as three of 12 D.C. Council members became the first elected officials to call for his resignation.”
