Bob Gibson: SBE to consider a complaint against the Miller campaign’s polling practices. I don’t understand why the SBE would hear this—do they have any jurisdiction in a federal election?

I think they do, Waldo, but we should probably get somebody who’s a little more experience that myself to answer that one.
I’m obviously no lawyer, but would hazard a guess that Hartnett’s complaint comes under “>§ 24.2-1014.1, which requires that Miller disclose that he’s making the calls (with a $2500 fine or a Class 1 misdemeanor at the other end).
Since it’s under state law, I think complaints have to be filed to the SBE (§ 24.2-929).
Very interesting—thanks for that.
That’s really informative, Kenton. Seriously, thanks for that.
Kenton Ngo–my choice for voice of reason.
