The Federal Elections Commission has launched a new investigation into the allegations that Ron Pauls 2012 presidential campaign offered a bribe to Iowa State Senator Kent Sorenson. Five days before the Iowa Caucus, Sorenson departed Michele Bachmanns presidential campaign and endorsed Ron Paul. Allegations that he received substantial financial payments to do so eventually played a role in Sorenson being forced to resign from the Iowa Senate.
The new FEC complaint was made by former Bachmann campaign staffer Peter Waldron, who also filed complaints against Sorenson with the Iowa Senate Ethics Committee.
Waldron alleges that the Paul campaign, its operatives, and third parties conspired to pay a bribe to Sorenson to betray Bachmann and publicly endorse Ron Paul.
