Investigators Say Former Treasurer Stole More Than $700K From GOP Committee
Thursday, June 12, 2008



WASHINGTON — A former treasurer apparently stole at least $725,000 from the committee that runs House Republican campaigns, investigators for the group said Thursday.

An internal probe alleged that the former treasurer, Christopher Ward, used his authority to order wire transfers to siphon money meant for the National Republican Campaign Committee and other GOP groups into his own accounts. The funds were taken between 2001 and 2007, according to investigators.

Ward also appears to have taken at least $28,000 from the committee in charge of Senate Republican campaigns, said lawyer Robert K. Kelner, one of a team of lawyers hired by NRCC to investigate.

Ronald Machen, Ward's lawyer, said they had no comment on the investigation's findings.

Now the NRCC must have their books audited by an outside agency. That will take at least six weeks, say first of August. They can't borrow money to fund Congressional election campaigns until this audit is completed. They're already hurting for campaign cash and this only makes it worse.
