Donors to nonprofit campaign groups can remain secret - Washington Times

Donors to nonprofit campaign groups can remain secret - Washington Times: With the presidential campaign now entering in its final phase, a federal appeals court Tuesday overturned a ruling that could have curbed the ability of secret-money outside groups from running advertisements during that critical time.

The court said that nonprofit groups such as Crossroads GPS, the Republican group helmed by Karl Rove, do not have to disclose their donors, even if they run ads that clearly name a political candidate in the two months before an election.
