Oversight cited in Jon Powers’ campaign

Citing an oversight in campaign reimbursements, Jon Powers’ campaign just released the following statement:

Statement by Powers for Congress on Campaign Finance Compliance

The Powers for Congress campaign, operating in good faith, made monthly payments to Jon Powers for the use of office space in Jon’s personal residence. All payments were made based on the fair market value of the space used. To ensure that he and the campaign are in full compliance with federal election laws, Jon has decided to immediately reimburse the campaign for this expense. This reimbursement will be reflected in our June FEC filing and the campaign believes this concludes the matter.

The Powers campaign has assured us that they take FEC rules seriously and they are moving quickly to correct this oversight, which is around $3,500.

    Good for powers, he made a mistake and owned up to it without excuses. That is the sign of a good leader!!

    I’m sure Republicans and Dem’s alike will probably try to jump all over this. Those who knock this are those who don’t know what a good leader is. Politicians are allowed to make mistakes, it’s just the one’s that don’t own up to them that are poor leaders.

    At least he wasn’t touching little children like Tom’s friends.
