Browne’s 1997-1999 Campaign

Continuing from my book Funding Liberty: A New Anomaly Recall that in the first half of 1996, there had been an oddity in the Browne campaign’s mailing expenses. For February-July, there were almost no payments for list rental. Browne had done pre-convention mailings, but his FEC reports gave no hint of payments for list rentals. As we now know, Browne’s…

Browne’s False Fundraising Claims 1997-2000 – Part Three
