Former Scottsdale City Councilman Tom Durham has refiled his campaign finance report claim involving Councilman Barry Graham, Phoenix-based consulting firm Primary Consultants, political consultant Rod Pritchett, a man named Mike Fernando and three online campaign influencers — Yes for Scottsdale, the Scottsdale Edge and Scott Dalevoter.
City Clerk Ben Lane originally rejected the complaint on Sept. 3, saying in a letter to the city council that the complaint “failed to allege facts constituting a violation of campaign finance law and on technical grounds.”
But Durham, a retired lawyer, has responded to Lane’s reasons for rejecting the initial complaint with his refiling of the complaint on Sept. 18.
