Case

#161972

Respondent

Angie Nuevacamina - 2023

Complainant

Conner Edwards

Description

On August 15, 2024, the PDC received a complaint alleging that the Respondent, Angela Nuevacamina, a 2023 candidate for City Council Member, Position 1, in the City of Redmond, may have violated RCW 42.17A.235 and .240 for failure to timely and accurately file contribution and expenditure reports, as required by law.  

Staff's review found that on January 10, 2024, the Respondent filed a C-4 report showing a negative balance of $2,107.76 on Line 20 of the C-4 report, which is normally indicative of contributions and/or expenditures that have not been disclosed/reported.  The staff also noted that the Respondent failed to include proper description(s) of the expenditures incurred by the campaign. For example, the Respondent failed to include the number/quantity of walk pieces purchased by the campaign for the July 27, 2023, expenditure paid to Upper Left Strategies in the amount of $1,296.54 for “Printing literature, fliers, postcards, etc.: Walk piece printing.” 

Based on the above findings, staff issued a formal warning to the Respondent and subsequently dismissed the matter in accordance with RCW 42.17A.755(1).
