File photos/PennLive.comRepublican gubernatorial candidate Jake Corman is calling for an investigation into suspected violations of the state’s campaign finance law by opponent and Senate colleague Doug Mastriano.
“Doug Mastriano has clearly and flagrantly ignored the law that every other candidate in the race has followed,” Corman said in a statement.Corman’s campaign is calling on Franklin County District Attorney Matt Fogal to investigate the matter since Mastriano is a resident of the county and Friends of Doug Mastriano has an address there.
He further points out in his letter that the responsibility for investigating the matter may fall on the county prosecutor since state Attorney General Josh Shapiro likely is conflicted since he is the presumed Democratic gubernatorial nominee.that Mastriano’s initial 2021 year-end campaign financial report showed only a single expense of $14,415.87 for an online fundraising service’s processing fees and no in-kind contributions despite a flurry of campaign events last year.
