I have gone through and linked to the financial information available at the Accountability and Disclosure Commission. This was done for the Legislature, Governor and Regent races.
Find the line that says Campaign Statements and then click on that. Find the latest report for the candiate and be sure to click on each tab to see who is financing the various campaigns and how they are spending their money.
David Harris is running some radio ads saying he doesn't like John Hanson because John is taking money from the Club for Growth. The Club for Growth is a Political Action Committee that funds political races. The Club for Growth has a reputation for opposing direct farm payments and opposes tax credits or subsidies for ethanol. Both of these things are very big deals for Nebraska's 3rd District.
There is one major problem with David Harris' ad. It names the wrong person as taking money from the Club for Growth. The ad says it is John Hanson taking $150,000 but in reality it is Adrian Smith that is accepting large contributions from the group.
KRVN, the premier farm radio station, is still running the Harris ads even though they are aware the ads are false. They are however, giving John Hanson time to correct the error.
