    That space under the stairs in the entranceway to her office where Dea Riley insists the campaign store stuff sure is pricey. Otherwise, meetings are held outside or in a coffee shop.

    Sounds like the campaign is also paying for Riley’s internet and phone since volunteers use their home or cell phones to make calls. Riley makes a big deal in the community of providing free wi-fi to the street, but I see it actually comes from the campaign. And to my knowledge, even those on the campaign staff work for free. I have seen Gatewood spend money out of his pocket, though.
