McCready Decried Dark Money In 2018, Received $944K In Dark Money Help

Congressional candidate Dan McCready (D.) publicly denounced dark money in the 2018 election cycle while a dark money group was spending nearly $1 million to defeat McCready’s opponent in a North Carolina House race at the same time.

McCready tweeted "Dark money has no place in our politics" last September while linking to a Washington Post story about a Supreme Court decision in which the high court declined to take up a campaign finance case that could have required more disclosure by nonprofits.

However, outside spending groups "shelled out $4.6 million to help McCready, most of which went toward negative ads against Harris," according to the Center for Responsive Politics. "The DCCC spent just over $1 million on the race and liberal ‘dark money’ 501(c) Patriot Majority USA dropped $944,060 to help McCready."

  1. Absolutely. Another Democrat trick - repeat Trump's promises such as more jobs etc but don't really mean it.
