Is it legal for state employees to use state owned computers during work hours to organize a partisan political rally?
Montana law (MCA 2-2-121(2)(a)) reads, “A public officer or a public employee may not: (a) subject to subsection (7), use public time, facilities, equipment, supplies, personnel, or funds for the officer’s or employee’s private business purposes.”
“Except as provided in subsection (3)(b), a public officer or public employee may not use public time, facilities, equipment, supplies, personnel, or funds to solicit support for or opposition to any political committee.”

Karl Rove comes to mind! more Repugs are in prison for compromising taxpayer owned products… like Duke the Crook Cunningham… etc
Anyway your post is quite silly – you don’t have any proof just a typical low iq voter look’n to the one thing that Repugs abhor and that is Accountability and Justice… you’re in the wrong cubicle here…

We’re not suppose to use state resources beyond state business. That’s why I use my mobile phone!
