Walla Walla County Demo Central Committee: Alleged violations of RCW 42.17A.235 & .240 for failure to timely and accurately file contributions & expenditures. (Feb 2019)
On February 3, 2019, the Public Disclosure Commission (PDC) received a complaint alleging that the Walla Walla County Democratic Central Committee (Committee), may have violated RCW 42.17A.235 by failing to timely and accurately file contribution and expenditure reports.
PDC staff reviewed the allegations/complaint and found that the Committee failed to timely file C-3 and C-4 reports in 2018. However, these deficiencies are mitigated by the fact that the Committee showed a good faith effort by putting measures in place to ensure timely filing of all future reports as required by the PDC laws and rules. Additionally, staff found no prior violations against the Committee.
Based on these findings, staff determined that the deficiencies found based on the review of the complaint did not warrant further investigation. However, staff issued a warning letter to the Committee regarding the importance of filing timely and accurate contribution and expenditure reports in the future.
Accordingly, the PDC dismissed this matter in accordance with RCW 42.17A.755(1).
