Mary Fallin, Frank Lucas Draw High Marks For Donor Disclosure From OpenSecrets.org
Congresswoman-elect Mary Fallin and Congressman Frank Lucas draw high marks from OpenSecrets.org for the quality of donor disclosure in their successful campaigns.Fallin is given a 98.8 percent rating, among the highest, for providing information about contributors. The organization found 1.2 percent of donor information was "incomplete" and Fallin had zero donors for which no information was listed.
Lucas drew a 99.5 percent rating, among the highest found.
Tulsa Congressman John Sullivan has the lowest rating, just 89.9 percent, with 10.1 percent of his donors found with no information, a red flag.
Congressman Dan Boren, D-2nd District, drew a 95.5 percent rating; Congressman Tom Cole, R-4th District, drew a 95.6 percent rating.
Federal law requires that all donors be identified by address, occupation and place of employment. Some candidates whose listings TMRO examined met those requirements only in the 80-percent range; in the past, ratings that low have prompted Federal Election Commission letters warning that the required information must be provided.
