The Tennessee Registry of Election Finance will not investigate a complaint filed against Rep. Paul Sherrell, R-Sparta, saying it would not be “weaponized” in the state House District 43 race, Tennessee Lookout reports. The complaint had said that Sherrell wrote checks to volunteer fire halls from his campaign account and asked for cash back to use for personal purposes. Sherrell said he used the cash to pay for breakfasts for firefighters.
