She calls her opponents "Corporate democrats," heavily insinuates that they are corrupt and yet........
According to Federal Election Commission records, however, the Turner campaign reported a March 31 donation of $1,000 from the director of Amare Public Affairs, a firm Turner founded last September as an offshoot of D.C.-based lobbying shop Mercury Public Affairs. And on Jan. 19, three days after her tweet, Turner accepted $250 from a partner at Mercury, per FEC filings.
A fictitious name filing recorded last October with the state of Ohio shows Mercury is the company behind Amare. That direct connection disappeared when the company’s name was replaced on April 26 with the Tampa-based “Highstake 11 LLC.” But business records with the state of Florida show Highstake 11’s only principal agent is Mercury’s CEO, Kieren Mahoney. The company withdrew its Florida registration in late June, but Ohio records still list Highstake 11 as Amare’s ultimate corporate identity.
Turner, who repeated her pledge as recently as this Monday, is still the dominant focus of Amare’s website.
