Republican House leaders today dodged questions about Gov. Mark Dayton's call for more disclosure and transparency of money flowing into the state's political campaigns. Minnesota law requires candidates to report less frequently than many states and far less often than federal law requires of federal candidates. The governor on Tuesday said he would "insist" any campaign reform efforts would have to include more frequent disclosure by politicians. "We should have full knowledge, particularly as decisions are being made during the legislative session and by the executive branch as well where people's money is coming from," Dayton said. At their Friday press briefing, House Speaker Kurt Zellers and Majority Leader Matt Dean wouldn't say whether they support the governor's proposal for more frequent disclosure. They did say they felt they had support to pass a bill that would require voters to carry a photo identification card. "The campaign finance discussion is separate from the photo ID discussion," Dean said. "We have a very good system in Minnesota…Minnesota compared to other states does a great job and we'll always try to improve that." Zellers said he wasn't ready to talk about changes in disclosure laws. "If we're going to talk about that it's a discussion for later on during the session as the committee works on that bill," Zellers said. "But not for right now when we're trying to figure out the budget deficit." State Republicans have faced criticism for not disclosing who funded gubernatorial candidate Tom Emmer's election recount effort last year. During the recount, Republicans said they would fundraise for their effort through the party. Such fundraising would have been publicly disclosed this week. This week, when campaign finance reports were filed, it became clear that the party decided to funnel funds through a separate corporation, Count Them All Properly, Inc. That corporation, set up less than a week before Republican Tom Emmer conceded the race, need not file any disclosure of donors. Zellers spoke in his office, which includes a photo of him smiling next to Emmer. He wouldn't answer whether he thought the party's actions were appropriate. "That's a question for the Republican Party of Minnesota," he said. "If it's a discussion the parties want to have and how they want to fund their campaigns, it's a good question to ask them." Zellers said there were selective calls for disclosure going on. "There was quite a trail that bounced from committee to committee to committee when it came to some of the funding on the gubernatorial campaigns, especially on the Democrats side of the aisle," Zeller said. --Staff Writer Rachel E.
