House Bill 217, which was sponsored by school choice activists, increased the cap on tax credits for private school scholarships from $ 65 million to $ 100 million, something that Cagle personally considered bad "a thousand different ways".

His campaign felt that, if Hill received the donation from the school-choice group, he would pose a significant threat to Cagle's gubernatorial ambitions. The chairman of the Super-PAC in question, the Walton Education Coalition, said that the rumors regarding the potential donation to Hill were "unfounded".

Furthermore, Cagle's purchase was labeled by the board as "unqualified" for appraisal purposes. This designation is given when "factors other than market value" sway pricing. In contrast to the low purchase price, Cagle valued the same property in his 2009 and 2013 disclosures at $ 175,000, which was significantly higher than the board's appraisal price.

Cagle sought to portray his primary opponent Kemp as an incompetent secretary of state, whereas Kemp sought to portray Cagle as scandal-prone and corrupt.
