"Deceptive conduit" in gov's race?

If you're uncomfortable about a recent 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decision that allows unlimited individual contributions to independent political campaigns in the state, you've got company. Today's Dome in the N&O reports that Democracy North Carolina has filed a complaint with the State Board of Elections about how the money (more than $380,000) in one political action committee supporting Charlotte Mayor Pat McCrory got to where it is. A story in the N&O last week quoted several donors saying they had no idea the money would wind up in North Carolina because they gave it to the Republican Governors Association, which then passed it along to the new PAC. Here's a link to the Dome item ("Reform group asks for PAC investigation).
Democracy North Carolina's Bob Hall notes that the 4th Circuit ruling allows unlimited donations, but questions whether the Republican Governors Association is giving contributions in the name of another, and whether that's legal. The state has an interest in avoiding "deceptive conduits that can have a corrupting
influence on our elections," Hall wrote.
Here's a link to Democracy North Carolina's letter on the N&O site.
