Christine O’Donnell ordered to explain finances

DOVER, Del. - A federal judge overseeing the Federal Election Commission’s lawsuit against former GOP Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell has ordered O’Donnell to provide information about her finances.

The judge on Monday ordered O’Donnell to submit documents by March 15 showing her income, assets and liabilities for 2014 and 2015.

-snip-

The lawsuit claims O’Donnell used at least $20,000 in campaign contributions to pay bills at a townhouse that also served as her 2010 campaign headquarters.

O’Donnell, who famously proclaimed during the campaign that she was not a witch, has denied any wrongdoing, calling the lawsuit a “witch hunt.”

It is a 'witch hunt'? Give her credit for a sense of humor, or at least having someone around her with a sense of humor.

...a witch, dollars to donuts there's some voodoo economics going on.

Has she been gainfully employed recently?

because outside of 'writing a book no one bought in hopes to capitalize on her 15 seconds of fame' isn't quite a job. For what we know Ms O'Donnell is living back at home in her HOME STATE OF NEW JERSEY with her parents.

Only other job I know she has done was be a professional GOP Carpetbagging Candidate in Delaware and occasionally a toss-away filler guest on cable TV.

And she hasn't run since she was smoked in 2010. The Delaware GOP pretty much told her she's on her own and in the end she is just a carpetbagger from New Jersey. If she wants to run for office do it in her home state of NJ. I'm sure Chris Christie would welcome her with open arms.....NOT!!!!
