Senator Madla, it appears, has had charges filed against him.  I won’t go into the full details (you can read about it at the links, below), but in short, he’s been charged with a major ethics violation.  The violation?  He’s a democrat who failed to disclose some $735,000 taken from a republican lobby group.  He’s also been accused of using the money to run a smear campaign (with allegedly false attacks) against his opponent, Carlos Uresti.  This is following a report that Madla was claiming a particular group pledged its support to him, when - in fact - they had publicly pledged support to Uresti.
