Mass. AG sues Lawrence mayor over campaign reports

Mass. AG sues Lawrence mayor over campaign reports Associated Press Copyright 2013 Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed. Updated 5:18 pm, Wednesday, January 9, 2013 Campaign finance reports include details about who contributed to a candidate's campaign and how the money was spent by the candidate. Coakley said it's particularly important that Lantigua get up to date with his campaign finance reports since he's announced plans to seek re-election this year to the top political office in Lawrence, a working-class city of 80,000 residents about 30 miles north of Boston. "The public has a right to expect complete campaign finance reports from candidates in mayoral races, just as it has in state races," said DeLeo, D-Winthrop. Lantigua has also come under scrutiny recently for his decision to hire political ally and former state legislator Jose Santiago, who was charged Monday with violating a restraining order obtained by a former girlfriend.
