Aug. 6 (UPI) -- New York City's Campaign Finance Board denied Mayor Eric Adams' request for more than $3 million in matching campaign funds after concluding his campaign provided "incomplete and misleading information."
The city's CFB on Wednesday morning denied Adams' request for matching public campaign funds due to his campaign not submitting the paperwork required and because board members think Adams broke federal corruption laws.
"The board finds the campaign has provided incomplete and misleading information to the CFB and has impeded CFB staff's ability to complete its investigation," board chairman Frederick Schaffer said during the CFB's Wednesday morning meeting.
"With respect to the second ground, the board's conclusion is based upon its review of all of the available evidence, including, but not limited to, its own independent investigation," Schaffer added.
