Ohio Rep. Davis admits election violation
Rep. Davis admits election violation, pays $1,000 fine
http://news.enquirer.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050304/NEWS0103/503040372/1059/news01

U.S. Rep. Geoff Davis' campaign committee has paid a $1,000 fine to settle a violation of federal election law that arose from his unsuccessful 2002 run against former Congressman Ken Lucas.

The Federal Election Commission found that Davis, a Boone County Republican elected in November, failed to properly identify contributors who turned out to be the children (ages 4 and 5) of Boone County businessman Bill Shehan, a Davis supporter.

-snip-

The original complaint was filed by Dennis Repenning, a Covington lawyer who supported Lucas in his 2002 victory over Davis.

-snip-

Repenning said the Davis campaign should have admitted wrongdoing earlier instead of waiting until after the 2004 election.
