North Dakota Democrat’s Out-of-State Special Interest Donation Gravy Train Continues to Roll On

Democrats Try to Buy North Dakota Elections with Out-of-State Checkbook

BISMARCK, ND – According to documents filed with the North Dakota Secretary of State’s Office, the North Dakota Democrat – NPL Party reported raising an additional $53,000 in large donations from out-of-state special interests in the past 10 days.

“The North Dakota Democrat Party continues to collect hundreds of thousands of dollars from liberal out-of-state special interests. With their candidates and Party being funded almost entirely with these large out-of-state donations, the voters of North Dakota are beginning to wonder who the Democrats will represent – the people of North Dakota or their wealthy donors from New York, Texas and Washington D.C,” said Jason Stverak, Executive Director of the North Dakota Republican Party. “North Dakotans deserve to know what are the motives for these individuals to make such large donations and what access it buys with the North Dakota Democrats and their elected officials.”
