Lake Forest Podcast hosts: ‘We don’t know who’s paying for’ the Lake Forest for Transparency group’s campaign ads


Podcast host Joe Weiss said, “they’re saying you must spend at least I think it's $5,000 to have to file with the State Board of Elections.” 

“Here is a group, we don't know we have no idea what they spent,” Weiss told co-host Pete Jansons, referring to the Lake Forest for Transparency group.

“Did they hire a democratic consulting firm to run this campaign? Weiss asked. “I'm sure you'll put it up with the right name but whoever that guy is, he posted and went into this whole scribe about the caucus is controlled by a bunch of right-wingers.”

This full episode is available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
