Mark Farrell Fined $108K for Largest Ethics Violation in SF History Ahead of Mayoral Election
Nov 4, 2024, 05:57 PM
Mayoral candidate Mark Farrell has agreed to pay a $108,000 fine after an investigation by San Francisco ethics officials found that he illegally funded his candidacy through a committee he created for a separate purpose. The violations involved commingling funds between Farrell's campaign committees, effectively circumventing contribution limits. This six-figure ethics fine, which is the largest in San Francisco history, comes on the eve of the San Francisco mayoral election. The ethics case was fast-tracked, highlighting the urgency and severity of the election violations.
