There was no campaign finance "scams" with the 0bama. There were 48 cases of late filing of notices of donations:
"The major sticking point for the FEC appeared to be a series of missing 48-hour notices for nearly 1,300 contributions totaling more than $1.8 million — an issue that lawyers familiar with the commission’s work say the FEC takes seriously. The notices must be filed on contributions of $1,000 or more that are received within the 20-day window of Election Day."
The fine for violations is one of the largest ever against a presidential campaign.
