GOP senator ousted by Tea Party challenger donates to Democratic Senate hopeful in Georgia

[Geee]

Washington Examiner:

Former Sen. Richard Lugar, a Republican, has given the maximum amount of money allowed under federal campaign finance laws to a candidate who hopes to help Democrats retain the Senate in the 2014 election.

 

Michelle Nunn used the $5,000 donation to appeal to conservative Georgia voters. "I am immensely honored and grateful for Senator Lugar's generous support in this race," she said. "Both in the Senate and in the international community, Senator Lugar's collaborative approach made us safer and moved our country forward. We need more leaders like Senator Lugar -- not less, and I will strive to follow this legacy in the U.S. Senate."

 

The Lugar-backed 19th Star PAC gave Nunn $5,000, the most that a PAC can give an individual candidate, the Huffington Post reported.
