The U.S. Elections Assistance Commission voted Thursday to put under the microscope California Secretary of State Kevin Shelley's handling of federal elections assistance money in what will be the first special audit the panel has ordered under the $3 billion Help America Vote Act program.
The four-member commission based its unanimous decision on the spate of troubling questions raised in a report last month by the state's chief auditor, including Shelley's alleged use of federal elections-improvement money for partisan purposes.

Shelley's problems with the Elections Assistance Commission are just the tip of the iceberg threatening to sink his political career.

He also is facing allegations of improper hiring, creating an abusive work place, receiving questionable political contributions and next week is scheduled to appear before the Joint Legislative Audit Committee to answer pointed questions about the elections-money flap.

yeah, let's fight to keep him in office
