Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-Calif.) believes the campaign finance charges filed against him on Aug. 21 are “purely politically motivated,” according to his spokesman.

Federal officials indicted Hunter on charges that he and his wife used hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign funds to pay for vacations, video games, and other personal expenses and filed false campaign finance reports.
