George Gollin Violates Campaign Law

This endorsement of self-described "crackpot" George Gollin by his paid campaign worker Novarah F. Kazmi violates federal law, experts say.

George Gollin Violates FTC "Astroturfing" Campaign Law

A candidate for the 13th Congressional district in Illinois has violated federal laws designed to prevent "astroturfing," the use of paid endorsements without disclosure, according to legal experts.

George Gollin, a self-described "crackpot" college professor running his first campaign for any public office, has an endorsement posted on his Facebook campaign site. That endorsement consists of a picture of a homely woman with a grotesque, horse-toothed grin, and bears the caption "I'm voting for George because..."

The woman in the picture has been identified by investigators as Novarah Fatima Kazmi, 21, of 408 E Healey Ave Apt 201, Champaign, Illinois. Kazmi has received four payments totaling $3,115.79 from the George Gollin campaign, according to information recently made public by the Gollin campaign in FEC disclosures.

Yet nowhere is the fact that Kazmi is being paid by the Gollin campaign disclosed in her endorsement. This is a clear violation of FTC law, according to legal experts. Citing the ongoing investigation, representatives for the FTC and FEC have declined public comment.

Kazmi is a student at UIUC, where George Gollin teaches, and a "Lab Technician" at Fermilab, where George Gollin also is employed. Kazmi is a three-time winner of the UIUC "Excellence in Physics Award," as determined by George Gollin and others.

This is another in a long series of lawless acts and sordid conduct by George Gollin. According to federal court records, George Gollin has been sued multiple times for stalking, extortion, defamation, computer hacking and civil rights violations. So far Illinois taxpayers have paid over $58,000 in legal fees in his defense.

Using the alias "galanga," George Gollin made 1,280 posts on a website operated by a notorious gay boy pornographer. In a recent interview George Gollin stated, "I was going to fuck them."

George Gollin has admitted that the dissertation he submitted to receive his purported "doctoral" degree was in fact written for him by 15 friends and was not his own independent work as required by his school.

George Gollin has been caught impersonating federal agents, posting other peoples’ social security numbers on his website, and has even made death threats against people who exposed his scurrilous activities, including one using imagery similar to that employed by the notorious Zodiac Killer.

When his employer ordered George Gollin to remove offensive materials from his website, Gollin immediately arranged for his partner, gay Oregon bureaucrat Alan Contreras to re-post it. A court has ruled that Contreras is a civil rights violator and anti-Christian bigot, a ruling Contreras did not challenge on appeal.

George Gollin's wife Mel Loots, a UIUC administrator, was cited by the FDA for selling 386 mutant lab pigs to the public for food. Loots' bigoted comments about "dirty Papists" and inept performance as the UIUC "Conflict of Interest Officer" during the recent conflict of interest scandal at UIUC have sparked a firestorm of negative publicity for the university and stirred public outcry for her dismissal.

Nice catch, Harrison. Wow, that didn't take long. Gollin announced his candidacy on July 23, and by August 2 he had already violated federal law by posting a paid endorsement without disclosure on his Facebook page.


There's a two-fer. Not just stupid for voting for him, but stupid for endorsing him without disclosing he paid her. I guess there really is truth in humor.

It could be a three-fer, because she's probably not even a US citizen and shouldn't be voting for him either. But it's Illinois, so the fact that she hasn't been dead for 20 years makes her more eligible than most Dem "voters" in the state.

George Gollin thinks he is above the law? Where is the surprise there? The law is for the little people to follow, not special people like George Gollin. Just add that to the list, along with stalking, extortion, defamation, computer hacking, civil rights violations, impersonating law enforcement, death threats, group dissertation projects, and only Chlamydia knows what else.

And being a racist asshole isn't necessarily against the law, but Gollin qualifies for that sobriquet as well. Who is so stupid as to compare black people to eggplants?

How often has this question been asked over the years: Is the PhD "expert" really that stupid? He expects people to believe he knows everything about everything, but he's utterly oblivious to his racist insults? I don't think so.


George Gollin = RACISM
