Does the Board have subject matter jurisdiction over what a legislator is alleged to have posted on his personal social media account?
Summary
LEB Opinion Summary
No. Even if the Board had subject matter jurisdiction in this matter, it would have not found a violation because there was no evidence showing the social media account was owned by the legislator or that he was involved in the posts complained about.
