“The strange case of the Virgin Islands political action committee took another strange twist,” the New York Times reports.
“Prominent members of the Virgin Islands Republican Party who were caught unaware by the creation of a federal PAC run by a political operative in Virginia more than a year ago now find themselves in an unusual position: One of them is responsible for it, at least on paper.”
“As we’ve reported before, VIGOP is a strange beast. It appears to raise no significant amount of money from the Virgin Islands, an American territory. (Most state parties depend on in-state support from individual donors.) It also had no Virgin Islander listed on the committee’s forms.”
