From the Billings Gazette:
The calls were made from Romania, according to phone records submitted this week to the state commissioner of political practices.
Jack Sands, a GOP candidate in Senate District 27 and the target of the Oct. 12 calls, filed the complaint alleging that the people making the calls didn’t identify who they were calling for. Senate District 27 includes parts of Billings and Yellowstone County. State law prohibits anonymous election material.
“They’re obviously spending thousands of dollars to defeat me,” Sands said. “You’d think the least they could have done was to provide some jobs in Montana instead of exporting jobs to Romania. Maybe they couldn’t find Montanans with the stomach to make the calls.”
