The cryptocurrency industry super PACs dumped $14.2 million into the Illinois primaries. 90% of that – $12.8 million – was wasted, in that it went to opposing Democratic candidates who won their primaries (Stratton in the Senate race, Ford in H-07) or supporting their opponents.

La Shawn Ford’s campaign launched a rebuttal ad against Fairshake, the crypto super PAC that has spent $2.5 million against him in #IL07. The ad points to TV and print coverage to show that Fairshake’s attacks omit a key fact: the charges against Ford were dropped.

The claim that “Juliana Stratton’s Super PAC is Funded by ICE Contractor” is also misleading. The super PAC in question is the Democratic Lieutenant Governor's Association, which is backing Stratton but is not “her” PAC. DLGA received $50k from CoreCivic, which it said it donated to the NILC.

Fairshake's spending went towards an attack ad and mailers that falsely imply Ford was convicted of felonies related to bank fraud, says the Wednesday Journal.
Ford, one of 13 Democratic primary candidates looking to succeed the retiring Danny K. Davis as 7th District representative in Congress, stood with Davis and other supporters at his campaign headquarters to address a video ad and political mailers that falsely imply that he was convicted of felonies related to bank fraud.  

The attack ad, created by the Fairshare super PAC, referred to a federal indictment against Ford in 2012, charging him with bank fraud and submitting false information. The video pieces together statements in a way that conveys that one statement made related to the next statement. But they do not.  

Ford, the video intones, “was indicted on 17 counts.” Waiting a moment for effect, they repeat, “17 counts” over a graphic of “17 counts” handwritten on a piece of cardboard. 

“The verdict? Ford convicted of tax fraud.” But Ford was not charged with tax fraud in the 17-count indictment. That single charge was in a superseding indictment. 

In 2014, after the original prosecutor left office, another prosecutor took over the case, and the U.S. Attorney in Chicago suddenly dropped all 17 felony charges in exchange for Ford agreeing to enter a guilty plea to a single misdemeanor tax charge. Ford, who has worked in real estate and property rehab on the West Side, agreed to plead guilty to overstating the rehab costs on one of his properties by about $23,000, which lowered his capital gains taxes when the property was sold, resulting in $3,782 in lost tax revenue to the IRS. 

He was sentenced to probation, a $1,000 fine and restitution.
