Mexican Green Party facing huge campaign finance fines


The Mexican Green Party may have to pay 17 million in fines for violating campaign rules, a commission has ruled.



The electoral institute found evidence supporting that allegation and grounds for seven other sanctions against National Action and the Greens.


The total fines could be 50 million, with Greens having to pay one third of that.



The electoral institute found that US $11,000 was deposited by an individual in Pasadena, California, into a “Friends of Vicente Fox” <of the National Action party> campaign account.
