Robertson amends Ethics Commission filing, only one Woolston contribution, none from Jasper County Republican Committee


Joplin R-8 Board of Education candidate Matthew Robertson filed an amended 8-days-before election report late Wednesday, removing one of two $100 contributions he originally reported from Joplin realtor (and former tornado mayor) Mike Woolston and completely removing a $50 contribution he reported from the Jasper County Republican Committee.

That contribution was replaced by a $50 contribution from Cathy Jo Loy, described on the document as a "stay-at-home mom" from Carthage.







The change came after Robertson was contacted by Jasper County Republican officials who noted that the central committee does not make contributions in non-partisan local races.

Robertson's report showed $1,270 in contributions, with the biggest being $500 from Higdon Florist and Gifts and $1,150 in expenditures.
