Assistant Staff Director 

Audit Division 

Federal Election Commission 

Washington, DC 20463 

Dear Ms. Brown: 

As a result of the audit of Anibal Commissioned 2020, two findings were notified with the 

recommendations to correct the misstatements. 

The first finding relates to differences between the reported financial activity when compared 

to the bank records. We had problems with the recording of transaction using IS Political 

software and, In most reports, we were unable to reconcile the amounts reflected in FED Form 

3 with our bank records. We attribute these differences to our limited knowledge in dealing 

with computer softwares. 

We did maintained adequate records reflecting receipts and disbursements. Our accounting 

records reflect that from its inception on February .10, 2020 to December31 of that year, the 

committee received contributions from individual donors, principally by checks and electronic 

transfers, amounting to $772,234.86, and incurred in ca_mpaign and operating expenses for 

$771,938.94, for a net cash In bank at December 31, 2020 of $29S.92. Please refer to Exhibit 1 

summarizing the transactions during the reference period. You will find as Exhibit 2 the 

beginning bank statement (February 2020) and as Exhibit 3 the December 31, 2020 bank 

statement reflecting the balance for $295.92. We understand that the figures included in 

Exhibit I reflect the correct Information about contributions received and e)(penses paid during 

the audited period. 

The second finding relates to missing information related to the occupation and name of 

employer of some donors. The majority of the contributions received by the committee came 

from low and middle-class contributors who made contributions of $500 or less by mail or by 

electronic transfers.

Since most of these donations were received without the donor's contact information 

(telephone or e-mail address), it has been very difficult for us to obtain the requested 

information, even though we made our best effort to obtain donor's contact information 

through other venues. We send letters and/or emails to contributors whose address was 

available requesting the missing information. Most of the responses were received from selfemployed professional, but few responses were received from other individual contributors. By 

the notes attached to some contributions received, we noticed that many of the donors were 

retired senior citizens. Included as Exhibit 4 is a list of donors with whom we communicated 

and the responses received from some of them. 

Since the candidate lost the election, the committee has been inactive since November 2020, 

without personnel or economic resources to assist us in obtaining the information. As 

previously mentioned, we want to emphasize that our biggest issue in trying to obtain the 

information requested was due to the limited contact information that donors send with their 

contributions. 

We certainly appreciated the orientation and support received from your audit division. We 

regret being unable to obtain all the information requested, since it was always the Candidate's 

and the Committee's intention to produce complete and accurate reports. 

Your consideration to the above mentioned facts and circumstances will be highly appreciated. 

Cordi~o~ -
