Alaska removes contribution limits

What is happening? Alaska lifted its fundraising limits of $500 per individual and all gubernatorial candidates are reporting receiving 6 figure contributions.

Why is this important? Some candidates say it is changing how much money is flowing into races, it is just changing who receives it. Now it is direct to the candidate instead of to an independent expenditure groups

How will this be important? Same game. Same money.
