Jim Jordan’s Marketing campaign’s Funds Reporting Is Off by Thousands and thousands and Might Set off an Investigation: Report

The campaign committee for US Representative Jim Jordan (R-OH) is under investigation after apparent mismanagement of funds resulting in underreporting of nearly $ 3 million over a two year period. The problems are so severe: “Experts say the dollar amount – totaling $ 2.87 million in errors – could trigger an FEC investigation,” according to The Daily Beast.

In the past three days, the Bundestag Election Commission has sent the Jordanian election campaign committee ten notices “in response to more than a dozen amended reports in which errors were corrected that the election campaign found in a comprehensive review of the submissions in 2018. One of the submissions revealed errors in spend and raises totaling $ 1,470,286.48. “

Jordan’s campaign has about a month to respond. Failure to respond appropriately can lead to enforcement action.

Campaign spokesman Kevin Eichinger told The Daily Beast, “There’s never been a shortage of money … In fact, the campaign’s cash balance is actually higher than what was previously reported in the campaign’s financial reports.”

“The error occurred when the former campaign treasurer accidentally reported certain donation expenses twice,” adds Eichinger. “When the bug was discovered, the campaign hired an outside expert to conduct a full audit and submit the appropriate changes.”
