[QUOTE="Muley14, post: 234923, member: 1560"] I don't listen to the radio much but this afternoon I heard a couple of old grandma's from either side of the aisle touting how we need to stop out of state special interest groups from taking over North Dakota politics. I listened closely at the end for who was paying for the ad, it was North Dakotans for Public Integrity. I did a little search the Secretary of State website. They have reported contributions of greater than $100 totaling $419,354.87. Of that $39,702.59 is from North Dakota addresses. To be fair they have reported another $91,000 in contributions of less than $100 and those you can't tell where they are from. Now I have no problem with out of state money coming into the state to represent their own ideas or business interests but to go on and advertise that measure 1 is to protect North Dakota from outside interests seems fairly disingenuous.
