originally failing to declare nearly 40% of his campaign funds, he sent an amendment... now there are questions he needs to answer or face a total audit
his total raised funding now stands at a declared $51K and change, including a loan of over $2K from daddy, still falling way short of his stated $1M he planned to raise

The FEC is now requesting two things from Watkins: for the congressional candidate to explain why this fundraising activity was not declared in his original year-end report and disclose the identities of those who contributed more than $200 to his campaign.
"Failure to adequately respond by the response date noted above could result in an audit or enforcement action," read the FEC's letter, which gave Watkins until May 2 to reply to its requests.
"Ron Watkins isn't new to putting out false information, but there are much greater consequences for lying to the FEC than to users on 4chan," Michelle Kuppersmith, executive director for the Campaign for Accountability watchdog group, told the Arizona Mirror when asked about Watkins' filing.
