NORTH CAROLINA. THE FORMER PRESIDENT SET TO DELIVER REMARKS IN ARIZONA. >> CAITLIN KNUTE: ALONG WITH THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE, VOTERS IN MISSOURI WILL SEE A QUESTION ABOUT RESTORING ABORTION RIGHTS. IT'S CALLED AMENDMENT 3. WE'VE HEARD FROM SEVERAL LEADERS CRITICIZING HOW THE CAMPAIGN IS GETTING ITS MONEY. SO WE ASKED KSHB 41 NEWS REPORTER CHARLIE KEEGAN TO TAKE A CLOSER LOOK. >> I WOULD GO TO SEARCHES. GEOFF GERLING LOVES NUMBERS FIND WHERE THE MONEY IS BEING SPENT. HE'S BEEN A CAMPAIGN TREASURER AND NOW WORKS AS A DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIST THIS WEEK HE'S SEEN THE VIDEOS PUSHED BACK ON THESE OUT-OF-STATE SPECIAL INTEREST AND TWEETS FROM REPUBLICAN GROUPS AND LEADERS LIKE MIKE, HE HOPED REPEATING OUT OF STATE GROUPS ARE FUNDING THE ABORTION AMENDMENT IN MISSOURI. MISSOURI IS NOT UNIQUE TO THAT. EVERY STATE HAS TO DEAL WITH THIS EARLY REVIEW. THE CAMPAIGN FINANCE REPORTS FROM MISSOURI ENDS FOR CONSTITUTIONAL FREEDOM WITH A SPACE. THIS GROUP COLLECTED SIGNATURES TO GET A VOTE ABOUT ABORTION RIGHTS ON THE BALLOT. THERE WAS A $10.15, DOLLARS FOR 55 IN THE LAST QUARTERLY REPORT. THE GROUP SAID IT HAD 1.9 MILLION DOLLARS IN THE BANK BUT HAD COLLECTED MORE THAN 7 MILLION DOLLARS OVER THE COURSE OF THE CAMPAIGN. OPPONENTS POINT TO ONE DONATION OF 3.5 MILLION DOLLARS FROM THE 16 30 FUND BASED IN WASHINGTON, D.C., WE WENT TO THE ORGANIZATION'S WEBSITE WHERE IT ADMITS IT SUPPORTS PROGRESSIVE CAUSES AND IT HAS A HISTORY OF FUNDING PRO ABORTION RIGHTS MOVEMENTS. KEOGH'S CAMPAIGN DOUBLE DOWN CALLING THE GROUP'S DONATION DARK MONEY. YOU'RE ALWAYS GOING TO GET OUT OF STATE MONEY IN COMPETITIVE RACES. GRILLING ADMITS TRACKING DONATIONS TO PACKS CAN BE MORE SLIPPERY THAN DONATIONS TO CANDIDATES BUT PACK SUPPORT CAUSES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE POLITICAL AISLE. THERE'S NOT NECESSARILY A LIMIT ON HOW MUCH MONEY YOU CAN GIVE TO A POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE. THERE ARE LIMITS ON WHAT YOU CAN GIVE TO A CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE. >> WE ALSO REACHED OUT TO THE AMENDMENT 3 CAMPAIGN DIRECTLY AND THE CAMPAIGN MANAGER SENT US A STATEMENT SAYING THAT THIS EFFORT, THIS MOVEMENT IS POWERED BY EVERYDAY MISSOURI, THEY POINTED OUT THAT MORE THAN 380,000, M
