EXCLUSIVE -- Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., has been hit with another Federal Election Commission (FEC) complaint, this one alleging she and her campaign manager operated a “subsidy scheme” that ran afoul of campaign finance laws. “Chakrabarti was trying to create the Uber for politics,” said Dan Backer, the conservative attorney behind the complaint. This is Backer’s second FEC complaint against her in less than a month. Essentially, Backer claimed the company operated at a loss to provide its approved candidates with campaign services on the cheap. Also driving the complaint were the overlapping leadership roles of Ocasio-Cortez and Chakrabarti on the implicated organizations.
