Party time in Jeff City: Wilson spends $1,041.88 on hotel and tuxedo rental
It must have been party time in Jefferson City as a new governor was inaugurated in January.
Rep. Kevin Wilson, R-Neosho, paid $1,667.91 on celebrations, during the last quarter, according to his disclosure report filed today with the Missouri Ethics Commission.
That total included $1,041.88 on "hotel/tux rentals," on Jan. 28, paid to "Kevin Wilson" according to the report, and $125.93 to Willis & Associates, Neosho, for "inaugural invitations."
Wilson made one contribution during the reporting period, $60 to the Newton County Republican Women's Committee.
The Wilson campaign committee received no contributions and has $11,443.76 in the bank.
Kevin Wilson is a notorius party boy in Jefferson City. He runs the bars every night of the week. It's a miracle he hasn't gotten a DWI but then again maybe he's using some of this money to pay off the Jeff City police!
