I may be among the minority of Wildrose supporters on this issue, but I think it is more likely than not that the decision was made for the right reasons. The issue that I have is that she shouldn't have made the decision. It had to be known that it could come out that she weighed in on the decision.
Looking at it another way, what if she proposed using one of the other groups. Would her ex husband have grounds to complain that she was biased against him and awarded it elsewhere out of spite. Maybe she considered that and awarded it to them to avoid it coming up?
There are a ton of possibilities and no matter what decision is made it will look bad from one angle or the other. The better move is to abstain from the decision to avoid the possibility of looking improper. I think it shows bad judgment on her part.
