From the Charleston Daily Mail:
Charleston lawyer Dan Greear, the Republican challenging state Attorney General Darrell McGraw, says at least $43,000 donated to McGraw’s campaign this election comes either directly or indirectly from lawyers who’ve benefited from state lawsuits.
Greear identified 45 donors who are either lawyers or family members of lawyers who have served as special assistant attorneys general on lawsuits brought by McGraw’s office and reaped millions of dollars in legal fees.
“The list of McGraw’s contributions compared with the list of special assistant attorneys general raises the question of whether the power of the attorney general’s office is for sale for political donations,” Greear said.
