Complaint Filed Against Campaign of Lori Stegmann for Multnomah County Commission for Violations of Campaign Contribution Limits
|
Portland resident Ronald Buel today filed a formal complaint with the Multnomah County Director of Elections against the campaign of Lori Stegmann for County Commissioner (District 4).
The complaint details $9,152 in contributions received by the Lori Stegmann campaign, which the complaint identifies as exceeding the limits placed into the Multnomah County Charter by Measure 26-184. For violations of that magnitude, the maximum penalty provided by Measure 26-184 would be approximately $183,000.
In November 2016, Measure 26-184 was adopted citywide with a 89% “yes” vote. It was placed on the ballot by the Multnomah County Charter Review Committee, at the urging of Honest Elections Multnomah County, Portland Forward, and other organizations.
The complaint charges that Lori Stegmann’s campaign has accepted 11 donations from corporations and other business entities. Measure 26-184 prohibits such contributions. The complaint also lists 5 contributions from individuals that exceed the limit of $500 per individual and one contribution from a political committee that exceeds the applicable $500 limit.
No court has enjoined Measure 26-184, which has been in effect since September 1, 2017.
Mr. Buel’s complaint requests that the Director of Elections apply the penalties against the Lori Stegmann campaign specified in the County Charter of “not less than two nor more than 20 times” any unlawful contribution.
