Meaning they wouldn't have been available to us to examine. That's why Luallen's office got involved. To suggest this is a photo op is pure Republican bullshit spin. The guy is a Democrat, working for a Democratic Mayor, his cohort Jim Newberry, being investigated by a Democratic Auditor. $500,000+ in wasted public funds??? I'd say that's a little more than a photo op. That’s not true – because most of these expenditures weren’t properly reported. Meaning they wouldn’t have been available to us to examine.

But we would also have fewer photo ops for Crit Luallen and fewer screaming headlines for the Lexington Herald Leader. That must be why we don't have government spending transparency.
