Harrington also maintained Kenney’s previous denials with regard to financing. Kenney said that his campaign did not send funds to Callaway’s campaign, nor did it transfer funds to individuals for that purpose. On March 15, Kenney told reporters: “I have absolutely no knowledge whatsoever about how they financed their campaign.”
If it comes out that Kenney sent money to Callaway, then Kenney should step down and the UCP deserves to lose the election.
Some thoughts/questions:
1. Did Kenney really need Callaway's help? He was the overwhelming favorite to win.
2. Is Kenney that dumb that he would risk this entire project to get caught over something that he didn't have to do? He is a political veteran, and the allegations are that of a sloppy political operative.
