Lots of funny business going on in the #Montana Election! HELENA, Montana — Montana Secretary of State Linda McCulloch filed a complaint Friday alleging that Stanford University and Dartmouth College researchers broke four laws by sending 100,000 election mailers to voters that appeared to come from the state. The mailers by political science faculty members from the two schools rate whether the four nonpartisan Supreme Court candidates in this years elections are liberal or conservative. Their use of the state seal, along with the title 2014 Montana General Election Voter Information Guide, makes them appear to be official state documents. The mailer prominently displays the Great Seal of Montana on both sides of the advertisement and deceitfully gives the impression that the information has been endorsed by my office and/or the State of Montana, McCulloch said in her complaint filed with the commissioner of political practices.
