for rent, salary or other regularly reoccurring administrative expense shall not be reported
as a debt before the payment due date.

During the Audit staff's review of disbursements, the disclosure of debts
and obligations owed by DLFC was also tested. DLFC did not disclose 6 debts, totaling
$29,121, which accounted for approximately 49% of the dollar amount of debts requiring
disclosure on Schedules D.

At the exit conference DLFC officials were given schedules of the debt
errors. The Candidate stated that he did not know why this had occurred and that
amendments to the appropriate reports would be filed.

In the interim audit report, the Audit staff recommended that DLFC file
amended Schedules D, by reporting period, to properly disclose the debts and obligations
noted above.

In response to the interim audit report, DLFC filed amended Schedules D
that materially corrected the public record

E. MISSTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL ACTIVITY

Sections 434(b)( 1). (2) and (4) of Title 2 of the United States Code require
a political committee to disclose the amount of cash on hand at the beginning of each
reporting period and the total amount of all receipts and disbursements for each reporting
period and the calendar year.

A reconciliation of DLFC’s reported financial activity to its bank activity
indicated that receipts and disbursements had been materially understated.

DLFC reported total receipts of $465,819 and should have reported
receipts of $502,180, an understatement of $36,361. The misstatement was due to the
following: not reporting contributions from individuals and political committees. totaling
$36,109; not reporting seven in-kind contributions from a political committee, totaling
$3,250; a math error resulting in an understatement of $251. and, an unexplained
difference of ($3,249).

DLFC reported total disbursements of $465,371 and should have reported
disbursements of $502,157, a net understatement of $36,785. The misstatement was due
to the following: a net under reporting of disbursements, totaling $34,826; not reporting
in-kind contributions, totaling $4,528; reporting five disbursements not supported by
debits to DLFC’s bank statements, totaling ($2,270); not reporting bank service charges,
totaling $287; and, an unexplained difference of ($586)

At the exit conference DLFC officials were informed of the discrepancies

noted above and were provided with a copy of relevant workpapers. DLFC officials
indicated that amendments to the appropriate reports would be filed.

itemized on Schedules B (Itemized Disbursements) as required. The review also
indicated a material omission of disclosure information for disbursements itemized on
Schedules B. There were 30 errors totaling $212,661. These errors, which represented
approximately 46% of the dollar amount of total disbursements requiring disclosure
information, were primarily due to disbursements that did not have an adequate purpose
or did not have the correct name and/or address. DLFC filed amended Schedules B that
materially corrected the public record for the itemization errors noted above. DLFC
corrected some of the disclosure errors, which decreased the error rate from 46% of the
dollar amount of total disbursements requiring disclosure information, to 32%

Disclosure of Debts and Obligations ~ 2 U.S.C. §434(b)(8): 11 CFR
§104.3(d), 104.11(a) and (b). During the Audit staff's review of disbursements, the
disclosure of debts and obligations owed by DLFC was also tested. DLFC did not
disclose 6 debts, totaling $29,121, which accounted for approximately 49% of the dollar
amount of debts requiring disclosure on Schedules D (Debts and Obligations). DLFC
filed amended Schedules D that materially corrected the public record.

Misstatement of Financial Activity — 2 U.S.C. §434(b)(1), (2), and (4). A
reconciliation of DLFC’s reported financial activity to its bank activity indicated that
receipts and disbursements had been materially understated. DLFC filed amendments
that corrected the misstatements.

The Audit staff explained to DLFC officials that these contributions were
considered in excess of the limit because unregistered political organizations are limited
to making contributions aggregating $1,000 per election, provided permissible funds
were in the account.’ The Candidate stated that DLFC did not have written procedures
for handling excessive contributions, but that it was their practice to make refunds
whenever they identified one.

A letter dated April 8, 2002 from Rankin County Republican Executive

Committee to DLFC requested that $1,000 be redesignated to the 2000 Primary election
and $3,000 be refunded. The Audit staff notes that redesignating $1,000 at this time is a
remedy not available to DLFC because the letter was not obtained within 60 davs of
DLFC’s receipt of the contributions in question, as required by 11 CFR 103.3(b)(3 4
The $3,000 had not been refunded at the time of the intenm audit report. DLFC also
provided documentation from Rankin County Republican Executive Committee that
demonstrated the initial $1,000 contribution originated from permissible sources.

The Audit staff also performed an analysis of contributions and
disbursements to determine whether any of the contributions designated for the general
election had been spent on primary election expenses. The analysis was performed using
election designations for contributions and disbursements as entered by DLFC on its
database. In cases where DLFC's database did not have an election designation, the
Audit staff used the designation in DLFC’s disclosure reports. If the transaction was not
identified in the disclosure reports, then the Audit staff determined the election
designation based on the date of the transaction. The analysis shows that contributions
designated by DLFC for the general election were not spent on primary related activity.
DLFC did not maintain a separate account to deposit questionable contributions but did
consistently maintain a sufficient balance to cover the amounts deposited in excess of the
limitation until just prior to the General election.”

In the interim audit report, the Audit staff recommended that DLFC
provide evidence demonstrating that the contributions noted above were not excessive or
that they were timely redesignated, or refunded. Absent such evidence, it was
recommended that DLFC refund the amount in excess of the $1,000 limitation. or $4,000,
and provide-evidence of the refund (photocopy of the front and back of the negotiated
teiund check). If funds were not currently available to make the necessary refund, it was
further recommended that these contributions be disclosed as debts on Schedules D
(Debts and Obligations) unti! such time that funds became available to make the refund.

Mississippi state election law allows contributions from both corporations and labor unions.

DLFC had net debts outstanding on the date of the Primary election in excess of $1,000. so the
redesignation would have been acceptable if it had been done timely

The latest FEC disclosure report filed by DLFC covered activity from January 1, 2002 through March 31,
2002 and disclosed a cash-on-hand balance of $0 as of the end of the reporting period.

Page 7 of 15 Approved 9/27/02



DLFC used electronic spreadsheets to account for its financial activity,
however, the disclosure reports filed with the Commission were prepared manually.
DLFC did file 48-hour disclosure notices electronically. A paid staff person handled
report preparation, recordkeeping, and the other day-to-day operations. Volunteer staff
worked for the campaign at various times.

To manage its financial activity, DLFC maintained one checking account.
From this account, 328 disbursements were made, totaling $502,157. DLFC’s receipts
were comprised of the following: 1,411 contributions from individuals, totaling
$329,290; 100 contributions from political committees, totaling $170,145: and, 15 in-
kind contributions, totaling $8,599.'

Dd. AUDIT SCOPE AND PROCEDURES
Following Commission-approved procedures, the Audit staff evaluated

various risk factors to determine the scope of this audit. The audit included testing of the
following general categories:

1. the receipt of contributions or loans in excess of the statutory
limitations (see Finding II.A.);
2. the receipt of contributions from prohibited sources, such as those

from corporations or labor organizations;

w

proper disclosure of receipts from individuals, political committees
and other entities, to include the itemization of contributions or other
receipts when required, as well as, the completeness and accuracy of
the information disclosed (see Findings I.B., C. and D.):

4 proper disclosure of disbursements including the itemization of
disbursements when required, as well as, the completeness and
accuracy of the information disclosed;

proper disclosure of debts and obligations;

the accuracy of total reported receipts, disbursements and cash
balances as compared to DLFC bank records (see Finding IT.E.):

adequate recordkeeping for DLFC transactions; and,
other-audit procedures that were deemed necessary in the situation.

Unless specifically discussed below, no material non-compliance was
detected. It should be noted that the Commission may pursue further any of the matters
discussed in this report in an enforcement action.

! Disbursements made from this account total approximately $37,000 more than total reported
disbursements and these receipt categories total approximately $42,000 more than total reported receipts
(see Finding ILE.)

United States Code that states, in part, that the Commission may conduct audits and field
investigations of any political committee required to file a report under Section 434 of
this title. Prior to conducting any audit under this subsection, the Commission shall
perform an internal review of reports filed by selected committees to determine if the
reports filed by a particular committee meet the threshold requirements for substantial
compliance with the Act.

B. AUDIT COVERAGE

The audit covered the period from February 1, 2000 (the date of DLFC’s
initial deposit) through December 31, 2000. DLFC reported a beginning cash balance of
$0; total receipts for the audit period of $465,819; total disbursements for the audit period
of $465,371; and, an ending cash balance of $448.

Cc. CAMPAIGN ORGANIZATION

principal campaign committee for Dunn Lampton, Republican candidate for the U.S
House of Representatives from the state of Mississippi, Fourth District. DLFC maintains
its headquarters in Jackson, Mississippi and its treasurer is Mr. Wayne Hutchison, who
also served as treasurer during the period covered by the audit. Mr. Hutchison had

Section 110.1(1)(5) of Title 11 of the Code of Federal Regulations states.
in part, that if a political committee does not retain the written records concerning
redesignation or reattribution, the redesignation or reattribution shall not be effective, and
the original designation or attribution shall control.

Section 110.9(a) of Title 11 of the Code of Federal Regulations states that
no candidate or political committee shall accept any contribution or make any
expenditure in violation of the provisions of part 110. No officer or employee of a
political committee shall accept a contribution made for the benefit or use of a candidate,
or make any expenditure on behalf of a candidate, in violation of any limitation imposed
on contributions and expenditures under this part 110.

Section 102.5(b) of Title 11 of the Code of Federal Regulations states, in
part, that any organization that makes contributions or expenditures but does not qualify
as a political committee under 11 CFR 100.5 shall either:

and limitations of the Act shall be deposited and from which contributions,
expenditures and exempted payments shall be made. Such organizations
shall keep records of deposits to and disbursements from such account
and, upon request, shall make such record available for examination by the
Commission; or,

organization makes a contribution, expenditure or exempted payment, that
organization has received sufficient funds subject to the limitations and
prohibitions of the Act to make such contribution, expenditure or payment

totaling $5,000 from Rankin County Republican Executive Committee. This
unregistered political organization gave DLFC $1,000 on July 27, 2000, $500 on
September 11, 2000 and $3,500 on October 23, 2000. DLFC noted all three contributions
as General on both its contributions database and Schedules A. The date of the Primary
election was March 14, 2000

2. Contributions from Political Committees

The Audit staff’s review of all contributions from political
committees indicated that DLFC did not itemize 12 contributions, totaling $31,500, on
Schedules A as required. In addition, the review indicated that 7 in-kind contributions
from LEHI Committee PAC, totaling $3,250, were not itemized on DLFC’s Schedules A.
According to FEC disclosure reports filed by the LEH] Committee PAC, these in-kind
contributions were related to receptions held for DLFC. These 7 in-kind contributions
were also not itemized as disbursements on Schedules B as required (see Finding II.C.).

At the exit conference DLFC officials were given schedules
identifying the contributions that were not itemized. No comments were provided on this
matter but the Candidate stated that amendments to the appropriate reports would be
filed.

3. Response to the Interim Audit Report

In the interim audit report, the Audit staff recommended that
DLFC file amended Schedules A (Itemized Receipts), by reporting period, to correct the
deficiencies noted above.

In response to the interim audit report, DLFC filed amended
Schedules A that materially corrected the public record for the itemization of
contributions (including the in-kind contributions) from political committees. DLFC
corrected some of the individual itemization errors, decreasing the error rate from 25% to
19%. However, this error rate is still considered to be material.

Cc ITEMIZATION AND DISCLOSURE OF DISBURSEMENTS

Section 434(b)(5)(A) of Title 2 of the United States Code states that each
report under this section shall disclose the name and address of each person to whom an
expenditure in an aggregate amount or value in excess of $200 within the calendar vear is
made by the reporting committee to meet a candidate or committee operating expense,
together with the date, amount, and purpose of such operating expenditure.

Section 104.3(b)(4)(i)(A) and (B) of Title 11 of the Code of Federal
Regulations defines "purpose" as a brief statement or description of why the
disbursement was made, and gives examples of acceptable descriptions.

DLFC’s disbursement records consisted of an electronic database
containing information for disbursements,° copies of invoices from vendors, and copies
of cancelled checks.

° As originally submitted, the database appeared to contain significantly fewer disbursements than reported
by DLFC. The Audit staff obtained the missing information from DLFC’s bank statements/cancelled
checks and supplemented the original database.

Page 9 of 15 Approved 9/27/02


In response to the interim audit report, DLFC refunded $4,000 to Rankin
County Republican Executive Committee and provided a copy of the negotiated refund
check.

B. ITEMIZATION OF CONTRIBUTIONS FROM INDIVIDUALS AND POLITICAL
COMMITTEES

Section 434(b)(3)(A) of Title 2 of the United States Code requires, in part,
a political committee to report the identification of each person (other than a political
committee) who makes a contribution to the committee in an aggregate amount or value
in excess of $200 per calendar year together with the date and amount of any such
contribution.

Section 434(b)(3)(B) of Title 2 of the United States Code states that each
report under this section shall disclose the identification of each political committee
which makes a contribution to the reporting committee during the reporting period,
together with the date and amount of any such contribution.

Section 431(13) of Title 2 of the United States Code defines the term
“identification” to be, in the case of any individual, the name, the mailing address, and
the occupation of such individual, as well as the name of his or her employer; and, in the
case of any other person, the full name and address of such person.

Section 100.7(a)(1)(iii) of Title 11 of the Code of Federal Regulations
defines the donation of goods offered free or at less than the usual charge or the payment
of services on the committee’s behalf as an in-kind contribution. Any in-kind
contribution must also be reported as an in-kind disbursement pursuant to 11 CFR
§100.8(a)(1 xiv).

1. Contributions from Individuals

The Audit staff reviewed contributions from individuals on a
sample basis and determined that DLFC did not itemize 25% of the contributions on
Schedules A as required. These contributions related to the General election. It appeared
that DLFC did not itemize multiple contributions from individuals that were less than
$200, which later aggregated in excess of $200 from the contributor, as required by 2
U.S.C. 434(b\(3)(A).

At the exit conference the Audit staff presented this matter to
DLFC officials. The Candidate stated that since no system was in place to aggregate
multiple contributions received from the same contributor, DLFC staff performed
aggregation manually. The Candidate stated that amendments to the appropriate reports
would be filed.

Page 8o0f 15 Approved 9/27/02


Ih. AUDIT FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

A. RECEIPT OF CONTRIBUTIONS FROM UNREGISTERED ORGANIZATIONS

Section 441a(a)(1)(A) of Title 2 of the United States Code states that no
person shall make contributions to any candidate and his authorized political committees
with respect to any election for Federal office which, in the aggregate, exceed $1,000.

Section 110.1(b)(2)(ii) of Title 11 of the Code of Federal Regulations
explains that with respect to any election means that if the contribution is not designated
in writing by the contributor for a particular election, then the contribution applies to the
next election for that Federal office after the contribution is made.

Sections 103.3(b)(3) and (4) of Title 11 of the Code of Federal
Regulations state, in part, that contributions which exceed the contribution limitations
may be deposited into a campaign depository or retumed to the contributor. If any such
contribution is deposited, the treasurer may request redesignation or reattribution of the
contribution by the contributor in accordance with 11 CFR 110.1(b) or 110.1(k). Ifa
redesignation or reattribution is not obtained, the treasurer shall, within 60 days of the
treasurer's receipt of the contribution, refund the contribution to the contributor. Further,
any contribution which appears to be illegal under 11 CFR 103.3(b)(3), and which is
deposited into a campaign depository shall not be used for any disbursements by the
political committee until the contribution has been determined to be legal. The political
committee must either establish a separate account in a campaign depository for such
contributions or maintain sufficient funds to make all such refunds.

Section 110.1(b)(5)(i) and (ii) of Title 11 of the Code of Federal
Regulations states, in part, that the treasurer of an authorized political committee may
Tequest a written redesignation of a contribution by the contributor for a different election
if:

° the contribution was not designated in writing for a particular election, and
the contribution exceeds the limitation on contributions set forth in
11 CFR §110.1(b)(1); or

. the contribution was not designated in writing for a particular election, and
the contribution was received after the date of an election for which there
are net debts outstanding on the date the contribution is received.

Further, a contribution shall be considered to be redesignated for another
election if the treasurer of the recipient authorized political committee requests that the
contributor provide a written redesignation of the contribution and informs the
contributor that the contributor may request the refund of the contribution as an
alternative to providing a written redesignation and, within sixty days from the date of the
treasurer's receipt of the contribution, the contributor provides the treasurer with a
written redesignation of the contribution for another election, which is signed by the
contributor.

WASHINGTON, D.C.



A review of all DLFC disbursements indicated that 61 disbursements.
totaling $62,384, were not itemized on Schedules B (Itemized Disbursements) as
required. These omissions represented approximately 13% of the dollar amount of
disbursements requiring itemization. In addition, the review indicated that 10 in-kind
contributions, totaling $4,729, were not itemized on Schedules B. Seven of the 10 in-
kind contributions from LEHI Committee PAC, totaling $3,250, were also not itemized
on Schedules A as required (see Finding II.B.2.). The review also indicated a material
omission of disclosure information for disbursements itemized on Schedules B. There
were 30 errors totaling $212,661. These errors, which represented approximately 46% of
the dollar amount of total disbursements requiring disclosure information, were primarily
due to disbursements that did not have an adequate purpose or did not have the correct
name and/or address.

At the exit conference DLFC officials were given schedules that listed the
itemization and disclosure errors noted above. The Candidate stated that amendments to
the appropriate reports would be filed.

In the interim audit report, the Audit staff recommended that DLFC file
amended Schedules B (Itemized Disbursements), by reporting period, to correct the
deficiencies noted above.

In response to the interim audit report, DLFC filed amended Schedules B
that materially corrected the public record for the itemization errors noted above. DLFC
corrected some of the disclosure errors, which decreased the error rate from 46% of the
dollar amount of total disbursements requiring disclosure information to 32%. This error
rate is still considered to be material

D. DISCLOSURE OF DEBTS AND OBLIGATIONS

Section 434(b)(8) of Title 2 of the United States Codes states, in part, that
each report under this section shall disclose the amount and nature of outstanding debts
and obligations owed by a political committee.

Section 104.3(d) of Title 11 of the Code of Federal Regulations states, in
part, that each report filed under 11 CFR 104.1 shall disclose on Schedule D the amount
and nature of outstanding debts and obligations owed by or to the reporting committee.

Sections 104.11(a) and (b) of Title 11 of the Code of Federal Regulations
state, in part, that debts and obligations owed by or to a political committee which remain
outstanding shall be continuously reported until extinguished. These debts and
obligations shall be reported on separate schedules together with a statement explaining
the circumstances and conditions under which each debt and obligation was incurred or
extinguished. A debt or obligation, the amount of which is $500 or less, shall be.reported
as of the time payment is made or not later than 60 days after such obligation is incurred,
whichever comes first. A debt or obligation which is over $500 shall be reported as of
the date on which the debt or obligation is incurred, except that any obligation incurred
