‘We’re Not Doing Kickbacks’

Mike Pence told Semafor that his presidential campaign would not resort to fundraising tricks to make the debate state.

Said Pence: “Yeah, we’re not doing kickbacks. We’re not doing gift cards. We’re not even giving out soccer tickets. We’re just asking people for support, and it’s rolling in.”

He added: “I will tell you, we’ve averaged, over the last week, over 1,000 contributions a day from all across the country. I’m confident that we’ll meet the qualifications. With the pace we’re going I actually think we may meet the threshold to qualify for the second debate before we arrive at the first one.”
