DARRELL MCGRAW RADIO ADS 
SHAMEFUL WASTE OF MONEY

Legislators Should Investigate Improper Use Of Funds


CHARLESTON, W.VA. – For months, statewide radio advertisements have been trumpeting the name “Darrell McGraw” all at taxpayer expense.

“Darrel McGraw is shamefully wasting taxpayer dollars in what is a thinly veiled effort to build his name ID in advance of next years election,” said Mike Stuart, Chairman of the West Virginia Republican Party.  “We want the Attorney General to pull the radio ads immediately and for him, personally or through his campaign, to reimburse the taxpayers and the state treasury for his shameless and embarrassing self-promotion. No one can possibly argue that the radio advertisements are for the benefit of our citizens or the office of Attorney General.”

Mike Stuart continued, “The Attorney General needs to provide a full accounting to the taxpayers of the tens of thousands of wasted dollars associated with his personal radio campaign including the dollars used to produce and develop the advertisements.”

“For too many years, Darrell McGraw has skirted or outright thumbed his nose at the laws he is charged to uphold. Our Legislators – Republicans and Democrats – need to begin a through review and oversight of the Office of Attorney General so that we may begin the process of restoring confidence to that important office.  If taxpayer funds have been used improperly, then Darrell McGraw should be held accountable,” concluded Stuart.
