Another fake presidential campaign started, this time for Ron DeSantis — feds won't stop it
Raw StoryWASHINGTON — A number of fake presidential committees have been formed over the last year, and the Federal Election Commission still won't do anything about it. Last year, a fake campaign committee was formed for former Vice President Mike Pence, sending news reports and speculation swirling. "It has come to the attention of the Federal Election Commission that you may have failed to include true, correct, or complete candidate information," FEC senior campaign finance analyst Jacqueline Gausepohl wrote in a letter to "Mr Joseph R Biden Jr" in a letter obtained by Raw Story. The most it's likely to do, as noted in a letter to the fake Biden committee, is removing the fake presidential candidate filing from the FEC's main public database "and placing the filings under the unverified filings database on the Commission's website."
