Box 2065 Wilmington, DE 19805 The Facts 1. On September 22, 1994 in the Delaware State News, it was reported that California rock star Don Henley had contributed $20,000 to the Delaware Democratic Party. [Taken by itself, there is nothing illegal about this contribution.] 2. The September 28, 1994 issue of The Wave reports that Charles Oberly says "rock star and former singer Don Henley contributed $100,000 to his campaign." (Copies of both articles are enclosed.) * 1 Office of the General Counsel 0 October 19, 1994 Page 2 It would appear that: a) If Don Henley did give $100,000 to the Oberly Senate Committee he has made an excessive campaign contribution. b) If Don Henley gave $100,000 to the Democratic State Party with the intention that it be spent on the Oberly Senate Committee it would be an earmarked contribution and subject to be counted against both contributor's limit and the party committee's limit for that candidate.
