Gray’s campaign woes hamper his administration

Published



Nearly eight months into D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray’s administration, he has been unable to shake the misdeeds of his 2010 mayoral campaign. Rather than being able to move forward with a clear message on how he’s running and changing the city, Gray has been dogged by mounting allegations that some members of his campaign acted illegally.

“The campaign has been under investigation — an investigation for which I called as soon as allegations of improprieties were made several months ago — and I cannot comment on specific matters,” Gray said in a recent statement. He added, “In no way are we distracted by the ongoing investigation of a campaign that ended more than eight months ago.”
