By David Gutman Republican leadership in the West Virginia Senate stalled their own proposal to increase campaign contribution limits after Democrats successfully amended the bill to also require increased disclosure by "dark money" groups that spend money on elections without disclosing their funders. The bill, as originally written, would have increased the maximum allowable contribution to candidates for state office from $1,000 per candidate, per election, to $2,700. But Democrats in the Senate Judiciary Committee amended a compromise into the bill (SB 408).
