6 large contributions ($25,000) reported on an A-1 after the deadline
A contribution of $1,000 or more must be reported to the State Board of Elections within 5 business days (2 in the last 30 days before an election the candidate is on the ballot for). The latest: $1,000 from Ben Emmrich, received 2022-04-03, reported 2022-05-04: 23 business days, 18 past the deadline.
What to check
The receipt date is what the committee reported; a correction or a typo there changes the count.
A contribution received and returned within the same quarterly period needn't be reported on an A-1.
The Board decides on fines and can waive them (inadvertence, clerical error, days late).
