Dark money in North Carolina's Hagan-Tillis Senate race: 4,086 ad spots at WBTV

In this mention

A Sunlight Foundation analysis of political ad buys at Charlotte TV station WBTV reveals that outside groups, including the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, spent heavily on undisclosed campaign ads in North Carolina's 2014 Hagan-Tillis Senate race. SACE spent $126,000 on ads airing March 24–April 13, which the article suggests may have violated FEC reporting rules. The analysis documents how dark money—particularly from conservative groups like Americans for Prosperity and Crossroads GPS—dominated the race's television advertising landscape.
