One entry in a record in office
Dave Yost: A Carney campaign TV ad claimed his office spent taxpayer money at a "$7 per cup" rate for roughly 1,000 cups of coffee served at a 2012 fraud-and-waste conference; multiple outlets found the $7,000 figure was Yost's request to the state Controlling Board covering two days of "coffee breaks," not a per-cup price, and that the conference served $3 bottles of soda with the tab covered by registration fees.
