WASHINGTON — Four candidates running for Congress in North Carolina failed to submit required documents to the House ethics committee that would give constituents a better idea of their finances and what could influence the decisions they make in Congress.
Those candidates include Charles Graham, Scott Huffman, Tyler Lee and Pat Harrigan. None of them sent in a financial disclosure form to the U.S. House Committee on Ethics.
“The problem with candidates failing to file these financial disclosure forms is that they are asking the voters to make a decision without all the information they are entitled to have,” said Brett Kappel, an attorney focused on campaign finance, lobbying and government ethics laws.
