GREEN BAY - State law limits the amount of money someone can donate to a candidate for governor to $10,000.
Wednesday, the government watchdog group Wisconsin Democracy Campaign filed a complaint with the Government Accountability Board (GAB). It alleges 10 people gave donations exceeding the limit, ranging from $100 to $5,000 more than allowed.
"A message to both candidates and donors that you have to take the law seriously," said Mike McCabe, the director of the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign. "These limits are in place to protect the public."
McCabe says the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign has filed complaints against candidates of both parties over the years. It is asking fines be handed out to both Walker and the donors.
