That’s what Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner wants to know. As part of an investigation launched against LetOhioVote.org, Brunner has subpoenaed the principals of LetOhioVote.org and New Models.

LetOhioVote.org supports a ballot measure to prevent horse racing tracks from getting slot machines. New Models, a Virginia-based corporation, is listed as the sole source of its funding. Brunner says that voters have a right to know who is behind the proposed ballot issue.

New Models is not without controversy. During the 2008 presidential campaign, they were behind automated calls to Pennsylvania voters accusing Barack Obama’s aunt of being in the country illegally and that Obama was accepting campaign contributions from her. New Models also raised money for Ken Blackwell during his 2006 gubernatorial campaign.
