Bill Connor didn't file his campaign disclosure?


Related topics: ,


Last fall, yours truly got a call from a Bill Connor campaign operative - who didn't identify himself as being one - trying to convince me there was a major ethical crisis because two other Lt. Governor candidates - Ken Ard and Ralph Norman (who later dropped to run for a State House seat) because they had not filed a disclosure.

One has to chuckle at the irony that the latest filing deadline passed with no filing from the Connor campaign. After seeing the initial report on the Palmetto Scoop website, we went to make sure, and as shown in the screen capture from the S.C. Ethics Commission website, no filing from the Connor campaign.

To be fair, we looked and didn't see any filings from the other two candidates - Ken Ard or Tim Scott - either.

Not that we think this is a major problem so early in the campaign, as much of the money raising and spending has yet to take place, but the irony of failing to their own standard on campaign filings is amusing. Especially on a Monday.

    So who is paying YOU? Tim Scott or Ken Ard? We're going to find out, so don't try to hide it.

    Careful, Earl. I made the same complaint to some campaigns last quarter, and the whining was palpable. I'll save their time, and give you their answer.. They have til the 15th!!!!! The 10th is not a 'hard deadline'....

    BTW, I like the new template - might I steal it?

    Sure Mike, but are you sure you'd know how to do the editing needed to make it work? You can't even embed YouTube clips into postings.

    And before you ask, NO, I am not coming all the way up there just to show you how to do it. I'm too busy being the bitch of some candidate for Lt. Governor.

    I'm just waiting for the kooks to make up their minds which candidate that is.
