The Arizona Democratic Party is accusing Republican candidates for the commission that regulates utilities of improperly using public funds for campaign signs.
The candidates, Tom Forese and Doug Little, face Democrats Sandra Kennedy and Jim Holway in a race for two seats on the five-member Arizona Corporation Commission in the Nov. 4 election.
All four candidates are using public funds from the Citizens Clean Election Commission for their campaigns.
The complaint against Forese and Little said that the candidates posted signs prior to reporting they received their public funds and paying the vendor for the signs.
The complaint also questions whether sign vendor Americopy printed $200,000 in signs that were put up just ahead of the primary, or if the signs were prepaid for the general election.
"It is questionable whether $200,000 worth of signs could have been printed and distributed in two weeks," lawyer James Barton wrote in the complaint. "It seems more likely that this money was either paid in preparation for the general election, or for signs that were produced prior to the candidates receiving funding, or both."

Republican Corp. Comm. candidates accused of improperly funding campaign signs
President Barack Obamas request for congressional authority to train and equip moderate Syrian rebels is complicating House Republicans efforts to quickly pass a government funding measure this week.
House Republican leaders are postponing tomorrows planned vote on federal spending legislation to consider the Syria matter, Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy announced today on the House floor.
I think I speak for my colleagues on both sides of the aisle when I say that we stand ready to listen and work with the president on the Syria request, said McCarthy, a California Republican.
McCarthy and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a Nevada Democrat, said administration officials plan private briefings for members of each chamber tomorrow.
President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden and Lisa Monaco, the presidents homeland security and counterterrorism adviser, are pressing House lawmakers to include the train-and-equip language in the spending bill before Congress recesses for the midterm elections, an administration official with knowledge of the situation said.
The bill would fund the government through Dec. 11 and renew the Export-Import Banks charter through June 30. Government funding expires Sept. 30, as does the bank charter.
