Theories have been floated by various corners that the republican party may have been trying to keep Carly Fiorina in the race simply so it could say it had a female candidate, or that Fiorina was kept around specifically so a woman could attack democratic rival frontrunner Hillary Clinton; indeed Fiorina spent the summer playing the role of Clinton attack dog. But now that Carly Fiorina climbed just high enough in the polls to matter as a candidate, the mysterious backroom financial dealings which had kept her in the race are now more than just a head scratcher for onlookers. They’re suspicious enough that the Federal Election Commission is demanding answers. That means this may have just gone from a scandal to perception to scandal with legal jeopardy.

I know you’re just quoting, but there’s no legal jeopardy here unless the PAC refuses to comply with the request. They probably will claim clerical error and enter the right code for the expenditure. Donating to a campaign that is not one you’ve stated to support is not illegal. Hinky and eyebrow raising, but not illegal.
