The money represented the amount of federal campaign funds used to pay salaries of 20 campaign aides after Carter won the 1976 election but before he was inaugurated. The FEC ruled unanimously that paying salaries for workers during the transition of administrations did not represent "qualified campaign expenses" and therefore violated federal law.
