News & Observer: Raleigh, NC - Legislative leaders, Gov. Roy Cooper and Attorney General Josh Stein were among 37 candidates that were fined because they accepted illegal campaign contributions from the pharmaceutical company Pfizer’s political action committee.
The state elections board hasn’t yet recorded fine payments from eight of the campaigns and from Pfizer, even though the deadline was a month ago.
The contributions totaled $53,500 and were dated during the legislature’s session, when PACs are prohibited from making campaign contributions to state office holders or candidates seeking those offices.
