HICKENLOOPER DROPPED PRESIDENTIAL BID ON PERSONAL DISCLOSURE DUE DATE

WFB:

Former governor requested two extensions while running for president.

John Hickenlooper’s exit from the presidential race came on the same day he would have had to file his financial disclosure forms with the Office of Government Ethics.

By entering the Colorado U.S. Senate race instead—a job he repeatedly said he did not want and would not be well suited for—the former governor will not have to provide a financial disclosure with the Senate Select Committee on Ethics until May 15, 2020.

After formally becoming a presidential candidate on March 4, 2019, Hickenlooper requested two extensions that were granted by the Federal Election Commission.

The first disclosure deadline was May 15, the second was July 1.

Just a week before the July 1 deadline, attorneys for Hickenlooper filed a request to delay his disclosures because “both the governor and his spouse have each experienced unusually frequent and extended travel during the weeks prior to the deadline, making it exceptionally difficult to compile the necessary information.” With that last request granted, his disclosures should have been due August 15, the day he dropped out. read more
