Federal officials to Andrew Yang: Your math doesn't add up
Andrew Yang's 2020 presidential committee often summed its campaign up in a single word: "MATH."
But the Federal Election Commission, which regulates and enforces the nation's campaign finance laws, is questioning Yang's addition skills.
"Your report discloses a negative ending cash balance of $190,861.62," a June 30 letter to the Yang campaign states. "This suggests that you have overdrawn your account, made a mathematical error, or incurred a debt."
The Yang campaign, which did not return Insider's request for comment, has until August 4 to respond to the agency.
