@TNLookout @anitawadhwani @MarshaBlackburn Thanks for the excellent reporting as always. Just one detail: Kline Preston was the President of Marsha Blackburn for Congress Inc. from 2002-2009 as proven by documents unearthed by journo @CJCMichel. Preston's own website calls himself President as late as Dec 2014. 
@TNLookout @anitawadhwani @MarshaBlackburn @cjcmichel These likely have to do with the $400,000 in income/spend Blackburn failed to report to the FEC around 2008, as outlined in this article by @dannyhakim of @NYTimes.

@TNLookout @anitawadhwani @MarshaBlackburn @cjcmichel @dannyhakim @nytimes But maybe not. Seems Preston was either a crummy recordkeeper or trying to defraud authorities, since Hakim's article also mentions 54 compliance requests from @FEC. See for yourself here

@TNLookout @anitawadhwani @MarshaBlackburn @cjcmichel @dannyhakim @nytimes @FEC See also Preston's own website calling himself President of Marsha Blackburn Inc. in December 2014.
At least 12 years as the head of Marsha's campaign org means Preston was a lot more than a simple family lawyer to the Blackburns.
