Can a radio ad be an in-kind benefit to Perry?
This is the question Chris Bell raised in a letter to Ronnie Earle. For background, see Off the Kuff and Red State.
In his letter, Bell wrote:
Texas Weekly has reported that Texans for Taxpayer Relief is airing radio ads in Houston apparently paid for by corporate money. These ads might constitute an in-kind officeholder and/or political contribution to Governor Rick Perry paid for by illegal corporate contributions that he and his representatives appear to have helped raise in possible violation of Election Code Section 253.094. We, therefore, respectfully request that you start a criminal investigation.
