NEW: Sara Gideon Hit With Another Ethics Complaint, Potential
Investigation

AUGUSTA, ME - Today, Dr. Demi Kouzounas filed an ethics complaint with
the Maine Commission on Governmental Ethics and Election Practices and
is urging an investigation of Sara Gideon's corporate-funded
Leadership PAC failing to disclose thousands of dollars worth of
Facebook ads.

In addition to the undisclosed campaign spending, the Facebook ads
appear to have promoted Sara Gideon, amounting to an in-kind
contribution to her 2018 campaign, far exceeding the $400 per election
contribution limit.

"Sara Gideon continues her pattern of unethical behavior," said Dr. Demi
Kouzounas. "First, the Maine Ethics Commission found Gideon broke the
law by illegally using her corporate-funded Leadership PAC to reimburse
herself for campaign contributions. Today, Mainers learn she tried to
hide thousands of dollars worth campaign ads while also illegally
boosting her own political ambitions."

"Mainers know Gideon has long relied on corporate money, shady donors,
and now illegally hiding campaign spending to further her political
ambitions and give Maine's voice away to Washington special
interests."

Kouzounas is a Dentist and a small businesswoman with nearly 30
employees. Before receiving her doctorate in dentistry, Dr. Kouzounas
served our country in the U.S. Army.
