44. Volunteers would be less likely to destroy opponent-party registrations
Mon Oct 1, 2012, 11:54 PM
Oct 2012

This company was seemingly paid to do just that. Harder to get volunteers to violate federal law and risk federal prison time, especially when some of those same volunteers might be opponent-party plants doing oppo research, but add a private company and $3.1 million to the mix, and suddenly the risk/reward and ethics equations change dramatically.
