The New York Times reported yesterday that New York Governor Eliot Spitzer’s aides used the State Police to gather information about State Senate Majority Leader – and Spitzer’s top rival – Joseph L. Bruno. The aides were planning on using the information to attack Bruno politically.
Spitzer has suspended his communications director Darren Dopp without pay for his role in the affair.
This account of governor’s aides using state law enforcement for political means might ring a bell for Missourians. Last week, the Kansas City Star reported that Governor Matt Blunt’s aides used the Missouri Highway Patrol to attack State Attorney General Jay Nixon. So far, Blunt has not taken any action regarding the case.
