AP 통신: 에릭 애덤스를 뉴욕 시장으로 선출하기 위해 허위 기부를 한 혐의로 6명이 기소됨

감시 단체인 커먼 코즈 뉴욕(Common Cause New York)의 수잔 러너(Susan Lerner) 전무이사는 애덤스의 부적절한 행동 여부를 판단하기에는 아직 이르다고 말했습니다. 하지만 그녀는 이번 기소가 뉴욕의 공공 재정 시스템이 의도대로 작동하고 있음을 보여주는 증거라고 강조했습니다.

"뉴욕시의 선거자금 시스템은 의도적으로 영향력을 매수하려는 사람들을 더욱 어렵게 만듭니다."라고 러너는 말했다. "여기서 얻을 수 있는 교훈은 시스템을 악용하려 하지 말라는 것입니다. 그러면 적발될 테니까요."

Los Angeles Times: Garcetti’s India nomination has stalled. So his parents hired lobbyists to help him
