The treasurer for Fourth District Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler's campaign committee has until Sept. 3 to correct errors in its second quarter disclosure report, filed July 15 with the Federal Election Commission.
The problem, according to the letter, which was sent July 30 and posted and the amendment was posted today, is that the numbers don't add up. The letter is addressed to Ms. Hartzler's treasurer, former State Sen. Delbert Scott, R-Lowry City.
"Additional information is needed for the following 1 item(s): - The totals listed on Line(s) 6(a), 6(c), 11(a)(iii), 11(e), and 16, Column B of the Summary and Detailed Summary Page(s) appear to be incorrect. Column B figures for the Summary and Detailed Summary Pages should equal the sum of the Column B figures on your previous report and the Column A figures on this report. Please file an amendment to your report to correct the Column B discrepancies for this report and all subsequent report(s) which may be affected by this correction."
Adequate responses must be received by the Commission on or before the due date noted above to be taken into consideration in determining whether audit action will be initiated. Failure to comply with the provisions of the Act may also result in an enforcement action against the committee. Any response submitted by your committee will be placed on the public record and will be considered by the Commission prior to taking enforcement action. Requests for extensions of time in which to respond will not be considered. Electronic filers must file amendments (to include statements, designations and reports) in an electronic format and must submit an amended report in its entirety, rather than just those portions of the report that are being amended."
It apparently took four weeks and one day to figure out the problem since the response was submitted today, just one week before the FEC deadline.
