[Lnc-business] FEC filings/reports

[Daniel Fishman]

Of course the FEC is currently paralyzed with only 2 of its 6 members
currently seated, but that leads to a fascinating chain of thought:

Members are appointed by the President and only 3 can be from any one party.

It occurs to me that it might suit this President's whimsy to appoint a
Libertarian while the GOP still control the Senate. Would the LNC have any
interest in my trying to make the President aware of the idea?
