A company that runs private prisons in Florida is among the handful of donors that have quietly helped bankroll an effort to tout the ''conservative'' credentials of Attorney General Charlie Crist to Republican voters.
........ Recently filed IRS records show that the coalition, a third-party group known as a 527 organization, took in more than $219,000, including $50,000 from The GEO Group, the Boca Raton company that runs two private prisons in the state and is building a third.
