In September, 2007 the Club for Growth agreed to pay $350000 in civil penalties and criticized the FEC for the lawsuit. The agreement, if approved by a federal judge, would mark the end of the lawsuit.

Famous quotes containing the words election and/or activities:
“Do you know I believe that [William Jennings] Bryan will force his nomination on the Democrats again. I believe he will either do this by advocating Prohibition, or else he will run on a Prohibition platform independent of the Democrats. But you will see that the year before the election he will organize a mammoth lecture tour and will make Prohibition the leading note of every address.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“The interpretation of dreams is the royal road to a knowledge of the unconscious activities of the mind.”
