So this is what is going on to my understanding. Please correct if I am wrong. (I am not being sarcastic, I really hate Hillary just as much as the next person and would love to see her brought down.)
* Someone used over the legal amount to do a fundraiser which Hillary apparently benefited from, then she lied and said she didn't know about it.
Is that the baisic idea here?
The real number is that Peter Paul spent about $1.9 million on her campaign. She allowed 3 fraudelent FEC filings to be made by her treasurer Andrew Grossman that did not reflect his in-kind contribution. It is the biggest campaign finance fraud ever, and she absolutely knew. If she reported accurately, it would have taken hundreds of thousands of dollars of hard money away from her NY campaign against Lazio in the closing weeks.
