7:13 p.m.
The president of a group that funneled donations to two ballot question committees said he was happy to comply with state campaign finance officials after they required the group to disclose their donors.
Officials said Tuesday the Massachusetts-based Strong Economy for Growth spent $1,168,000 on the questions. Most of the money — $990,000 — helped support a question that would have lifted state caps on charter schools.
The group also funneled $178,000 to a group opposed to a question to legalize the recreational use of marijuana.
