NBC's Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd has an ongoing conflict of interest in political coverage with his wife, Kristian Denny Todd, whose Maverick Mail & Strategies firm does direct-marketing campaigns for Democrats.Chuck Todd's wife and heavy lifting....
A search of the campaign-finance database Open Secrets shows Mrs. Todd has donated $13,250 to federal candidates so far in this election cycle, all of them Democrats. She also donated $540 to Act Blue, a "nonprofit organization that builds tools Democrats count on to run small-dollar fundraising programs."
Most of her money went to two candidates. She gave the maximum $5,400 to Sen. Tim Kaine, matching the $2,500 Mrs. Todd donated in February 2012. She also donated $5,000 to Rep. Joseph Crowley (D-N.Y.) two weeks before he lost his primary to "democratic socialist" phenom Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on June 26. She also donated $500 to Doug Jones, who defeated Roy Moore in a special Senate election to replace Jeff Sessions in December 2017.
