Which of the following was the result on appeal in Protect My Check, Inc. v Dilger and Steffan the case determining whether the ban on direct corporate contributions violated PMC's free speech rights?
A) The court held that the regulations complained of impermissibly regulated speech because nonprofit corporations were treated differently than corporations operated on a for profit basis and this made the law unconstitutional.
B) The court that as long as the Kentucky laws at issue allow corporations to administer a state PAC and contribute to state candidates through that PAC, and as long as the ban on direct contributions applies equally to corporations, LLCs, and other similarly situated groups, such laws are closely drawn to combat the legitimate interest of preventing the reality or appearance of quid pro quo corruption and are therefore constitutional
C) The court held that corporations could be treated differently than LLCs and unions because of their corporate structure.
D) The court ruled that the regulations complained of permissibly regulated speech because nonprofit corporations, unlike corporations operated on a for profit basis, lack constitutional protections in free speech cases.
E) The court ruled that free speech rights were for natural citizens only and therefore not an action that the courts or regulations protected for corporations.
