UK election betting scandal widens as a fourth Conservative Party official reportedly investigated

Britain’s Conservative Party’s chief data officer, Nick Mason, has taken a leave of absence amidst allegations that party members used insider information to place bets on the date of Britain’s upcoming July 4 national election before it was officially announced.

Several Conservative officials, including election candidates Laura Saunders and Craig Williams, are under investigation by the U.K.’s Gambling Commission for allegedly participating in these bets, which reportedly could yield substantial winnings.

The scandal has escalated with the involvement of Tony Lee, the Conservative director of campaigning, who has also taken a leave of absence amid similar allegations, the Associated Press reported.
