A candidate for Pittsburgh City Councilwoman Twanda Carlisle's seat who won the Democratic endorsement on Sunday failed to file required paperwork on time, officials said Wednesday. As a result, her candidacy could face legal challenges.
Rachel Cooper, 22, of Homewood, did not file a required "statement of financial interest" with the city clerk's office until yesterday afternoon, according to officials in that office. Under state law, the statement was due Tuesday.
The clerk's office does not take any action in such situations. Others could file a court challenge.
Ms. Cooper is "aware of it, but there are some circumstances around it, and they'll be forthcoming," said Kevin Jordan, a campaign spokesman.
