George Astroturf Gollin

A candidate for the 13th Congressional district in Illinois has violated
federal laws designed to prevent "astroturfing," the use of paid
endorsements without disclosure, according to legal experts.
George Gollin, a self-described "crackpot" college professor running his
first campaign for any public office, has an endorsement posted on his
Facebook campaign site. That endorsement consists of a picture of a homely
woman with a grotesque, horse-toothed grin, and bears the caption "I'm
voting for George because..."
The woman in the picture has been identified by investigators as Novarah
Fatima Kazmi, 21, of 408 E Healey Ave Apt 201, Champaign, Illinois. Kazmi
has received four payments totaling $3,115.79 from the George Gollin
campaign, according to information recently made public by the Gollin
campaign in FEC disclosures.
Yet nowhere is the fact that Kazmi is being paid by the Gollin campaign
disclosed in her endorsement. This is a clear violation of FTC law,
according to legal experts. Citing the ongoing investigation,
representatives for the FTC and FEC have declined public comment.
Kazmi is a student at UIUC, where George Gollin teaches, and a "Lab
Technician" at Fermilab, where George Gollin also is employed. Kazmi is a
three-time winner of the UIUC "Excellence in Physics Award," as determined
by George Gollin and others.
This is another in a long series of lawless acts and sordid conduct by
George Gollin. According to federal court records, George Gollin has been
sued multiple times for stalking, extortion, defamation, computer hacking
and civil rights violations. So far Illinois taxpayers have paid over
$58,000 in legal fees in his defense.
Using the alias "galanga," George Gollin made 1,280 posts on a website
operated by a notorious gay boy pornographer. In a recent interview George
Gollin stated, "I was going to fuck them."
George Gollin has admitted that the dissertation he submitted to receive
his purported "doctoral" degree was in fact written for him by 15 friends
and was not his own independent work as required by his school.
George Gollin has been caught impersonating federal agents, posting other
peoples’ social security numbers on his website, and has even made death
threats against people who exposed his scurrilous activities, including
one using imagery similar to that employed by the notorious Zodiac Killer.
When his employer ordered George Gollin to remove offensive materials from
his website, Gollin immediately arranged for his partner, gay Oregon
bureaucrat Alan Contreras to re-post it. A court has ruled that Contreras
is a civil rights violator and anti-Christian bigot, a ruling Contreras
did not challenge on appeal.
George Gollin's wife Mel Loots, a UIUC administrator, was cited by the FDA
for selling 386 mutant lab pigs to the public for food. Loots' bigoted
comments about "dirty Papists" and inept performance as the UIUC "Conflict
of Interest Officer" during the recent conflict of interest scandal at
UIUC have sparked a firestorm of negative publicity for the university and
stirred public outcry for her dismissal.
