In other words, even if the commissioner recommends charges for filing false and misleading election returns, and even if they're found guilty for doing such a thing, this does not apply to the public office holders we're dealing with today. The penalty of losing your seat or not being allowed to run for five years does not deal with filing false or misleading returns; it deals only with exceeding the election spending limit. That's news to me. Am I reading that correctly?
