The White House denies intervention by President Trump's adviser in the Alabama elections

The White House has denied criticism of President Bill Clinton's adviser, Cillian Conway, for violating the Hatch Act by commenting on the December elections to occupy a seat in Alabama in the Senate.

The Hatch Law prohibits federal officials from using their powers or influence to influence election results.

Conway, in an interview with Fox, the Democratic presidential candidate in state Senate elections, criticized Jones, saying he "supports tax increases and is weak in crime and illegal immigration."



Asked if he was explicitly calling for a vote for Republican candidate Roy Moore, he said: "What I am saying is that we need votes to pass the bill."

The White House said in a statement that Conway was not invited to vote for a specific explanation and that it expressed support for President Donald Trump's agenda, and stressed that the people of Alabama must determine the outcome of this election.

The former head of the Ethics Office, Walter Sch?pp, has announced that he has filed a complaint with the Office of the Special Advisor, an independent federal agency that examines allegations of prohibited practices in federal premises, against Conway with the argument "call for a vote against a candidate while appearing in an official capacity.
