    11 lawmakers nudged into filing financial disclosures?

    July 23, 2009 --

    Eleven state legislators have filed their 2008 financial disclosures since we pointed out Monday that they had missed the July 1 deadline.

    Good job, guys.

      Ms. Drenner,
      The report in question is a Personal Financial Disclosure Report, which must be filed every year by July 1 to disclose certain real estate and business holdings and sources of income. The report referenced in your comment is a CCDR (Campaign Contribution Disclosure Report), which is not the same thing.
