Campaigns: State’s reporting laws vulnerable
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 11/13/7 State law currently prohibits corporations from donating more than $1,000 to a political candidate’s campaign during an election cycle.

$25.2M spent on election contests
The Clarion-Ledger, 11/11/7 Candidates running for Mississippi’s eight statewide offices spent more than $25.2 million this election year, according to campaign finance reports.
