John Leavitt and the “Attack PAC” Smacked by the SEEC

On January 15, 2010 by agreement and consent including payment of a civil penalty, John Leavitt was found in violation of Connecticut General Statutes §9-621 (a) with regard to ads that were placed that included scurrilous and ad-hominem attacks on candidates in the last election that were published in the Shoppers’ Guide and Woodstock Villager, as well as web-based communications, without the required attributions required by the statutes. The PAC’s registration names Kevin Ford as Chair and John Leavitt as Treasurer.  The agreement was subsequently adopted by the SEEC on January 20, 2010.

Complaints are still pending against the WBOE with regard to PTO involvement in the referendum held last June. Mr. Leavitt had a hand in that too- stay tuned.

    John Leavitt knows better and should have been fined. Kevin Ford is clueless but he's the dangerous type who THINKS he knows everything but in fact doesn't know much. He should have been fined too.
