in back wages, according to court records. Bosworth and chief financial officer Peggy Craig, the candidate's sister, responded by accusing Rall and Montgomery in sworn affidavits of stealing office records related to raffles benefiting the clinic.
• The suit is pending, and Bosworth said Wednesday she wouldn't comment beyond the affidavit.
• A fifth former Bosworth employee, Dave Baumeister, the former communications coordinator of Preventive Health Strategies, said he was paid everything he was owed. But Baumeister said he left the nonprofit in July 2013 out of concerns that employees were expected to perform work for her campaign. U.S. tax code prohibits nonprofit organizations from participating in political campaigns either for or against a candidate.
• Bosworth, 42, founded the mission-based health care nonprofit Preventive Health Strategies in 2011 and opened a private practice medical clinic in Sioux Falls called Meaningful Medicine.
• Bosworth reported income of less than $18,000 from three contracts for the two years 2012 and 2013, and she reported no income for her husband, Chad Haber, in a filing with the Senate Ethics Committee. Rules require candidates to report any candidate or spousal income of more than $1,000. She also listed a debt of a business line of credit of between $500,000 and $1 million, according to the filing.
• She has said most of those financial problems stemmed from a drawn-out battle with the South Dakota Board of Medical and Osteopathic Examiners, which had reprimanded her in 2012 for employing a physician assistant who was not licensed.

But she spent $674,000, mostly on direct mail fundraising, according to her latest Federal Election Commission report. The campaign has been using Base Connect, a direct mail fundraising company that helps conservative candidates, organizations and political action committees.
• Her campaign ended the quarter about $193,000 in the red.
• Bosworth said campaign funds are meant to be spent, not accumulated.
• "If we have 1 cent left on Election Day, we messed up," she said. "These supporters don't give me their money for me to store away and use it as a future trust fund."
• Most of the contributions came from unlisted donors giving less than $200 each, and more than 98 percent of the itemized contributions were from out-of-state donors.
• Bosworth said the FEC report doesn't show "thousands of donors" from South
