Miller Accuses Contractor of Electioneering
The Huffington Post reports:
Alaska's Republican Senate candidate Joe Miller, still awaiting the official results of his battle against write-in candidate Sen. Lisa Murkowski, has unveiled his latest weapon in battle that he is thought to be losing: a video that he says shows unlawful electioneering from a federal contractor.
In the video, which first played on Fox News's "Huckabee" over the weekend, depicts a man, supposedly a federal contractor, giving a speech on November 1 at a federal construction site.
During his address to employees, the man defends federal spending and explains Sen. Lisa Murkowski's impressive record of steering carve-outs to the state of Alaska.
"I don't know how many of you guys know that Lisa Murkowski was fortunate enough to get on to the Appropriations Subcommittee. That is very hard to get on to. Ted Stevens was on that committee for years and actually chaired it for years," the man says. "If her opponents win this election, I can tell you they will not get on that Appropriations Subcommittee."
