Findings
Worth a look Late or missing
TRACER lists 1 late campaign finance report penalty this cycle
The candidate's committee has 1 late-filing penalty on reports due since January 1, 2025: October 19, 2026 (open, waiver requested). 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
Worth a look Income · the statement
No income from their office as State Senate District 9 on their 2026 disclosure
They hold office as State Senate District 9, which pays a salary, and their 2026 disclosure lists 4 sources of income (Military Retirement/VA; Silver Legacy Resort; Bank Interest (Joint Acct); National Financial Services (Joint) but none that is the office. The form asks for every source of income, an employer included.
What to check- The disclosure itself: whether the salary is listed under another name, or in an attachment.
- Whether they took office after the year the disclosure covers (an appointment late in the year).
Rule: No income listed from the office they hold
“List the names of any sources of income, including capital gains (whether or not taxable) for yourself, your spouse, and minor children residing with you.”Form CPF-13 (Rev. 06/2026), instructions: Income ✓ quoted from the saved copy · how this rule works

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.

“The following state officials must file a PFD by January 10th each year 24-6-202(1), C.R.S.”Form CPF-13 (Rev. 06/2026), instructions: Annual Filing Requirements ✓ quoted from the saved copy · how this rule works
