CA: Orange County Supervisor (D) Fined by State Watchdog for Not Disclosing Free Chargers Tickets

County supervisor Katrina Foley was fined $1,800 by the state’s campaign finance watchdog for failing to properly disclose tickets to Chargers games she received in 2017.

Staff from the Fair Political Practices Commission, the state’s chief overseers of campaign finance laws, say the free tickets never led to any conflict of interest.

Foley was unaware a decision had been made on the case when contacted by Voice of OC, but she declined to speak on the issue, saying she was going into a library board meeting.

In a statement on Tuesday afternoon said she’d failed to report the tickets within the 30 day window required by the commission.

“When I was made aware of the error, I immediately paid the full value of the tickets and worked with the FPPC to comply with all reporting requirements,” Foley said in a text to Voice of OC.
