Description

The Public Disclosure Commission (PDC) completed its review of the complaints Marylou Eckart, Charles Eakins and Glen Morgan filed July 11, 2019 through July 16, 2019. The complaints alleged that Lynnwood Forward (the “Respondent”) may have violated RCW 42.17A.205, .235, .240, .255 and .320 for failure to register as a political committee, report contributions & expenditures, disclose independent expenditures or electioneering communications, and identify the sponsor on political advertising (e.g. Lynnwood Forward website).

PDC staff reviewed the allegations; the applicable statutes, rules, and reporting requirements; and the response provided by the Respondent to determine whether the record supports a finding of one or more violations. 

Based on the findings, staff has determined that, in this instance, no evidence supports a finding of a violation warranting further investigation.

Based on this information, the PDC found that no further action is warranted and dismissed this matter in accordance with RCW 42.17A.755(1).
