SEEC Tags Legislative Clerk Angel Morales for $30,000 in 2010 Campaign Finance Violations.

Big trouble for Hartford Democrat and General Law Committee clerk Angel Morales. Most of the public funds he received in his 2010 nail biter in a Democratic primary against incumbent state Representative Kelvin Roldan disappeared without benefit of receipts.

Morales and his benighted campaign treasurer were unable to account for $19,381.85 of the $26,000 in public funds provided by the taxpayer. The SEEC opinion makes it clear that Morales was in no hurry to assist SEEC in its investigation of the missing Citizens’ Election Fund money. Morales must pay back the missing money and a $10,000 fine. His campaign treasurer, Jason Lopez, is on the hook for a $5,000 fine.
