Back a bit there was an exchange with PCE and several groups, including The Utah Amicus and KVNU's For The People regarding PCE's alleged offer of $10 for a voucher vote. From the FTP Blog:
Conflicting stories regarding the Parents for Choice in Education votes-for-cash scandal are emerging. In a KVNU exclusive, field worker Brandon Dupuis will tell us tonight that the program was the brain child of the PCE central office. In contrast, Robyn Bagley of Parents for Choice in Education says PCE had nothing to do with the program.Not much more was said, at the time, although this retraction was issued by PCE:
"It was simply incorrect and misrepresents the Free Capitalist Projects' grass roots efforts. Neither Parents for Choice in Education nor the Free Capitalist Project will ever provide incentives that appear to pay people to vote."Today, The Utah Amicus reports (emphasis mine):
Last week Mr. Brandon Dupuis, himself, called one of our State Party interns and offered him the very incentive that Free Capitialist and Parents for Choice in Education claimed they would never do .Ironic. PCE's apparent (and repeated?) ethical challenges have been a large proponent of the anti-voucher movement, creating a "nothing these people support could be good for Utah" mentality among a growing number of voters.
So what is it PCE? Are you buying votes, or not?
