Findings
Worth a look Late or missing
TRACER lists 2 late campaign finance report penalties this cycle
The candidate's committee has 2 late-filing penalties on reports due since January 1, 2025: Major Contributor Report (waived); Major Contributor Report (open). 1 is still open (neither paid nor waived). A report filed late keeps the committee's money out of public view until it's in.
What to check- The penalties on the candidate's TRACER page: dates, amounts and waivers.
- Whether a waiver was granted (the Secretary of State may waive for good cause).
Rule: Penalties for late campaign finance reports
“The Secretary of State imposes penalties of $50 per day for late filings, including weekends and holidays.”Colorado Campaign and Political Finance Manual (Secretary of State) ✓ quoted from the saved copy · how this rule works
Context Late or missing
Their 2026 annual disclosure is dated January 13, 2026, after the January 10 deadline
As a member of the General Assembly, they file a disclosure by January 10 each year (January 10, 2026 was a Saturday, so we count January 12, 2026 as on time). The first we found for 2026 in TRACER's Document Search is dated January 13, 2026, 1 days after the deadline.
What to check- Whether they took office after January 10 that year (an appointment or a new judgeship).
- The document's date in TRACER is the date it was received or entered.
Rule: An annual disclosure after January 10, or none found
