In this screenshot from the Thursday, Oct. 20, 2022 meeting of the Alaska Public Offices Commission, attorney Scott Kendall speaks to members of the commission, including chair Anne Helzer . Kendall was requesting a speedy hearing for a complaint against the Republican Governors Association.
The Alaska Public Interest Research Group and the 907 Initiative are the two politically active, progressive nonprofits who filed the complaint and have alleged that the governors association is spending directly on the campaign, rather than through its Alaska intermediary. The $3 million donated by the RGA to A Stronger Alaska for the Alaska governor’s race is a larger sum than has been raised by any of the four candidates in the race.
That transaction was disclosed in state documents but not to the IRS, which Kendall said is evidence that it never actually took place.
