City Council Candidate Contributions

Below I listed out the sources of campaign funding for the city council candidates.

I obtained the campaign finance disclosure forms by visiting the Registrar of Voters last Friday (May 23). May 22 was the deadline to file such reports. At the time, the Registrar had forms for about half of the candidates. They said the reports only had to be postmarked by May 22, and therefore, if I returned at a later date, they might have more.

So I went back there today (May 27). They only had a handful of additional forms. I'm still missing forms from Tony Amatulli, Gerald Walker, and Fred Twyman. Other candidates submitted forms with no finance disclosure data, I'm not sure if that means they have no money at all, or what.

In the listing below, I chose to leave out the names of retirees and relatives, feeling there was no need to publicize them. To me, a relative was someone with the same name. Otherwise, everyone else I included.

So here is the info...
