Preface
Candidates
for office who establish campaign committees must file preelection statements.
A statement covering the period October 1 - 19, 2002, was required to be
filed with the Registrar of Voters on or before October 24, 2002. Candidates
Harris and Hood filed their statement, California Form 460, on October 24
at 5:26 PM. The six pages of that statement are included below.
The source of $400 in contributions of $100 or more that was not disclosed
in their previous statement is still not divulged. It is not possible to
determine the identity (ies) of the contributor(s), thus Hood and Harris
do not comply with California Government Code §84211(f). See Schedule
A and Summary Page below.
Their previous statement identified an outstanding debt that has seemingly
vanished without explanation. This was either $460 or $560, per different
lines on their previously filed schedule F. How can a debt vanish? See Summary Page below.
The accounting reflected in the statement below, filed by candidates Harris and Hood on October 24, 2002, is not credible.

All documents
included in this web page are public documents that were obtained from the Sacramento County Registrar of Voters per government code §81008(a). The documents
are presented here without any edit, correction or modification.
Below is the California Form 460 Cover Page.
Unlike their first Cover page,
this one has the three required signatures and follows the "Type or print
in ink" instruction at the top of the page. The County date stamp shows this
form was received on October 24, 2002, at 5:26 PM.
Below is the California Form 460 Cover Page -- Part 2.
Below is the California Form 460 Summary Page.
Column B line 1 accurately reports the sum of $1700 previously reported contributions
plus the $125 received in this period. This confirms the earlier reported
$1700 to be a valid amount as of September 30, not an error. Their previous statement did
not identify the source of $400 of "contributions of $100 or more" that was
included in the reported $1700; the source of the $400 has still not been
divulged by Hood and Harris, even though required by the election code.
Column B in the first 11 lines is intended to be a sum of what was previously
reported in Column B of their first summary plus the contributions or expenditures
between October 1 and October 19 as reported in Column A. Their first Summary
Page column B reported "0" in line 3 in error; this summary corrects for
that error without explanation.
Also without explanation, line 12 shows a Beginning Cash Balance of $92.35,
not the "0" ending cash balance as reported in their first summary.
The "Accrued Expenses" reported in their previous (first) summary
of $560.00 have disappeared. The $560 reported as unpaid bills
on September 30 has now become "0" without any accounting of the satisfaction
of that previously reported debt. The $560 was carried to their first summary
from a Schedule F, Accrued expenses (unpaid bills). Even though there was
an outstanding Schedule F balance reported on September 30, they did not
file a Schedule F to "also report the payment on Schedule F, column (c)"
as instructed by the FPPC instructions for Schedule F.
Below is the California Form 460 Schedule A - Monetary Contributions Received.
These are new contributions, and unlike their first Schedule A,
the subtotal is entered and correctly carried to line 1. Their first Schedule
A does not identify the source of $400 in contributions summarized in line
1 of their first Schedule A; this Schedule A also does not identify the previously
missing $400.
The "Cumulative to date calendar year" column is blank for both contributions, an error also present on their first Schedule A.
Below is the California Form 460 Schedule B - Loans Received.
The contributor code boxes are not checked for either lender.
Below is the California Form 460 Schedule E - Payments Made.
The address of the payees, required by §84211(k)(2), is missing for both payees.
