Respondent

Ryan Bowman

Complainant

Conner Edwards

Description

 

  • PDC staff reviewed the allegations and evidence you submitted; the applicable statutes, rules, and reporting requirements; the applicable PDC reports; and other relevant information to determine whether the record supports a finding of one or more violations. 

Based on staff’s review, we found the following:

The violations were inadvertent and minor and otherwise have been cured, and did not materially harm the public interest beyond the harm to the policy of Chapter 42.17A RCW inherent in any violation. 

In addition, Ryan Bowman took corrective action within five business days after being notified of noncompliance by PDC staff. The campaign reported receiving no contributions and making no expenditures. 

Based on this information, the matter is resolved as a remediable violation pursuant to RCW  

42.17A.755 and WAC 390-37-060. The PDC finds that no further action is warranted and has dismissed this matter in accordance with RCW 42.17A.755(1).
