Just like Republicans in MN, VA, NH, and CO Blaine Luetkemeyer broke FCC law.
From the Baker campaign:
"Blaine Luetkemeyer will say anything and break any law to get elected. He is part of the old politics that just hurts Missouri families by dividing us," said Paul Tencher, spokesman for the Baker campaign. "These violations are serious because they are laws created specifically to let voters know Mr. Luetkemeyer is responsible for the negative campaign tactics he has used to distort Judy's record and distract voters from the real issues. If he is so proud of his gutter advertising he should follow the law and put his name on them."
According to FCC law, a television advertisement sponsored by a candidate and that makes direct reference to an opponent during the 45-or 60-day windows must include, at the end of the broadcast, simultaneously, and for at least four seconds:
A clearly identifiable photographic or similar image of the candidate; and
A clearly readable printed statement identifying the candidate and stating that the candidate has approved the broadcast and that the candidate's authorized committee has paid for it.
The violations mean that for the rest of the campaign the Luetkemeyer camp should not be eligible for discounted advertising rates given to candidates that follow the law.
