Roll Call offers this fascinating report (paid subscription required), which begins: “Justice Department investigators have begun a review of Senate Rules and Administration Committee records relating to negotiations over the Help America Vote Act, involving then-Chairman Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) and former House Administration Chairman Bob Ney (R-Ohio), as they wrap up their investigation into Ney’s connections to disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff, Senate sources said Tuesday.Senate aides familiar with the review said Justice officials indicated the inquiry was not focused on Dodd, who now serves as the committee’s ranking member, and the type of information investigators were seeking–while not specific enough to indicate they were looking for a smoking gun –appear to point directly at Ney.” Unfortunately, the article doesn’t get any more specific about what the investigators might be looking for. This could turn out to be a very interesting story.
