He's bringing more than just ice cream to New Castle County! • New Castle County Executive Paul Clark used $1,250 of his campaign funds to give Mr. Softee Ice Cream to county employees during a hot spell in August. • The Ice Cream Days on Aug. 24, Aug. 25 and Aug. 26 were held on county property during the employees' working hours. A Sept. 16 event, for county library employees, was held at a hotel. Clark used the county's email system to notify the employees about the events. • Delaware's Elections Commissioner, Elaine Manlove, said the expense apparently violated the state campaign-finance law. Campaign funds shouldn't be used for employee-appreciation events by elected officials, she said. • I think he should reimburse his campaign fund and file an amended report, Manlove said. Food is an allowable expense, but it has to be for a campaign event. • After defending the expense as a legitimate campaign expenditure last week, Clark said Monday he would reimburse his campaign. • Read more: • http://resolutedetermination.wordpres...
