Dale criticized for taking insurance industry donations

The Clarion-Ledger, 6/11/7

Insurance Commissioner George Dale’s Democratic opponent, Gary Anderson, today blasted the incumbent’s acceptance of money from the insurance industry and promised not to do the same.

Dale, Mississippi’s Insurance Commissioner since the mid-1970’s, often takes campaign contributions from insurance agents and others associated with the industry. He has said a small amount of his donations comes from insurance companies.
