The complaint says that earlier this year, a staffer simultaneously worked as a deputy treasurer on Dunleavy’s campaign and managed activities for a Dunleavy-focused super PAC. That kind of crossover is considered illegal coordination under APOC statute.

The Alaska Public Research Interest Group and a new organization called 907 Initiative filed the complaint on Tuesday with the Alaska Public Offices Commission.

“The public has no idea whose money this is,” AKPIRG attorney Scott Kendall said Tuesday. “And the ability to prevent corruption is gone, because not only will this be anonymous money, but it’s anonymous money that the governor directly or indirectly gets to say how it’s spent. Campaign finance law at that point means nothing.”

Shilling, who claims to work as an unpaid volunteer on the campaign, also has a state contract for $10,000 a month to consult on renewable energy policy.
