video: GoLocalTV: Is Raimondo Hiding Donations From CA Developer?
Tuesday, October 11, 2016
A GoLocalProv.com investigation has found that Governor Gina Raimondo's campaign failed to pay the "fair market value" for its kick-off event in January 2014 at developer Lance Robbins' Hope Artiste Village in Pawtucket -- who was recently awarded $3.6 million from the state.
By not paying "fair market value," the donation by Robbins' would not have to be reported -- see more here.
