Contributions at Issue in Anderson/Chaney Race

WLBT, 10/25/7

Both candidates for insurance commissioner agree this is the most important race coming up in the November general election. Gary Anderson and Mike Chaney each believe they are the one to lower insurance rates and generate more economic growth in the state.

But there’s plenty they disagree on. The issue of campaign contributions is again at the forefront. Should an official who will regulate insurance in Mississippi be allowed to accept contributions from insurance agents and companies?

Anderson says no. Chaney says there are more important issues facing the state.

Anderson blasted Chaney for his alleged ties to big insurance.
