128th District Rep. Bryan Stevenson, R-Webb City, has no opposition in the November general election, but the fundraising machinery continues to operate at a brisk pace.
According to his quarterly report, filed Oct. 6 with the Missouri Ethics Commission, Stevenson collected $2,750, spent $3,944.99, and was left with $12,698 in his account.
Among those contributing to Stevenson were: Rudy Farber, Neosho, $325; Missouri Hospital Association Southwest District, $175; Missouri Hospital Association HealthPAC, $325; Missouri Health Care Association PAC, $325; Realtors PAC, $100; Nick Myers CPA, $325; MOAHA PAC, Jefferson City, $325; Cingular Wireless, El Paso, Texas, $325; and Political Action for Nurses in Missouri, Jefferson City, $325.
Stevenson contributed $1,275 to Republican state auditor candidate Sandra Thomas, with the most of the remainder of his expenditures, $1,433.38, going to Briarbrook Golf and Country Club.
Perhaps its time to draw up a new law that requires politicians to either refund their unused money in their war chest to those who donated it or to give excess money to charity.
ReplyDeleteI don't think they should be allowed to keep it.
I'm sure any candiate would refund your contributions if you ask. I never knew one that refused to send a requested refund, but then again I bet none of the contributions are yours to begin with so who cares what you think?
