One of the candidates who received funding from the RPM was Plaintiff Knight, the endorsed candidate for State Treasurer. The RPM gave Knight’s campaign $5,000, the maximum contribution permitted to his campaign from a political party unit. See Minn. Stat. § 10A.27, subd. 2. The RPM was unable to provide Knight with any additional support after his endorsement due to the limitations of subdivision 10(b). As Sutton testified, the RPM “contemplated and desired to make independent expenditures related to Mr. Knight’s candidacy,” but was not able to do so for fear of “subjecting the RPM, [Pogin] and/or [Knight] to liability for violating the RPM’s contribution limits to the Candidate.” Sutton Aff. ¶4. The RPM refrained from making any further expenditures on Knight’s behalf. Id. ¶ 5. Subsequent to the primary election, the RPM refrained from making independent expenditures on behalf of any of its endorsed candidates due to a similar fear of legal liability. See Haapoja Aff., Ex. G at 56; Sutton Aff. ¶ 6.
