Eric Persson's October Campaign Finance Report is MIA

Seven of the eight candidates for Shawnee City Council seats have filed their October campaign reports earlier this week as required https://voter.jocoelection.org/CampaignReportsDisc

One candidate, Eric Persson in Ward 2 does not appear to have his October report on file as of 0600 hours today 10/29/21.  Hmmm, who is responsible for that?  Is it him or his treasurer Kelsi DeBruyn?

Why is that report not on file?

Well, here is a list of possible reasons/excuses:

1.  It was there on time but JoCo Election office hasn't posted it yet

2.  It was there late and JoCo Election office hasn't posted it yet

3.  I/we forgot to send it in

4. I/we did not put it on our calendar(s)

5. We don't have to file, as rules don't apply to us, only to others, because we're special and we can do what we want when we want.

6. There were donations and/or expenses that we don't want to show before election day, even though we have to, by law.

I'm trying to be kind with responses #1 & 2.  Responses 3 & 4 shows disorganization, and possibly an
"I don't care" attitude.  Responses 5 & 6, well, are these possible?  

Curious as to what the tap dancing will be about this.
