Description | The Republican Party planned Monday to take its battle against Democrat Frank Lautenberg's New Jersey Senate campaign to the Federal Election Commission, seeking to bar the Democrats' former candidate from giving his campaign money to the party or Lautenberg.
The National Republican Senatorial Committee was preparing to file a complaint with the commission contending that because Sen. Robert Torricelli is no longer a candidate, he must refund any leftover contributions for next month's election to his donors, NRSC general counsel Alex Vogel said.
The NRSC will ask the commission to block Torricelli from transferring his campaign fund to the party or to Lautenberg as the FEC investigates the Republican complaint, Vogel said. The most Torricelli can give Lautenberg is $1,000, he said. |
