The D.C. Office of Campaign Finance took no action after a closed hearing Tuesday and is still considering “unresolved issues” over irregularities in Council Chairman Kwame Brown’s finance reports from his 2008 campaign for an at-large council seat, an office spokesman said.
An audit that was released earlier this month found that Brown didn’t report $133,000 in contributions and $203,000 in expenses.
OCF spokesman Wesley Williams said there are “still some unresolved issues” and additional hearings will be scheduled, likely for late next week. He said Dawn Cromer, treasurer for Brown’s 2008 campaign, spoke at the closed hearing, but would not elaborate on what was discussed.
Brown did not attend the hearing.
Brown could face fines for reporting failures, and the case could also be sent to the Board of Elections and Ethics for referral to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
