Raising Campaign Cash: League City Candidate Scott Higginbotham

And you wonder why League City Council got rid of the Ethics Committee?

In his last campaign finance report Scott Higginbotham did not disclose a $5000 donation to Nick Long’s PAC. That donation was used to attack his opponent. Looking at his latest report Higginbotham claims to have raised $11,850 but documented only $582.82.

In his previous report he had $10,627.26 COH after raising $11,850, loaning his campaign $5000, and spending $6222.74. That adds up. What doesn’t add up is his second report.

In his second report he loaned his campaign another $16,500 leaving an outstanding loan balance of $21,500. He didn’t document over $11,000 in donations. He claims to have spent over $24,000 but documented only about $4000.

None of this is right. None of it ads up. None of it.
