Description | A controversial Canadian senator donated to Donald Trump’s reelection effort, violating U.S. campaign finance law in the process, amid an election where accusations of foreign influence and cash are flying back and forth.
In early May, Senator Lynn Beyak made a $300 contribution to the Republican National Committee, per a publicly available Federal Electoral Commission filing. Beyak listed her profession as “retired” and her mailing address as a post office box on Davis Point Road in Dryden, New York.
But the address and zip code do not point to any actual location in the state. There is a town of Dryden in New York, but no Lynn Beyak resides there.
There is, however, a Davis Point Road near Dryden, Ontario. A phonebook listing that matches the street address from the GOP donation receipt corresponds to Lynn Beyak, a sitting member of the Canadian Senate. The postal code from Beyak’s Elections Canada donation records also corresponds to the address on Davis Point Road. |
