HARRISBURG, Pa., May 29 (UPI) -- Former Pittsburgh Steeler Lynn Swann, who is running as a Republican for Pennsylvania governor, reportedly may need to update campaign finance disclosures.
Swann, who wants to unseat Democratic Gov. Ed Rendell, has been campaigning as a reformer, reports the Philadelphia Inquirer.
However, the newspaper reports state records say either some of Swann's required pre-primary campaign reports were not filed or that those that were filed included incomplete information. The documents are required to be filed two weeks before a primary election on a daily basis to account for all donations over $500.
Pennsylvania Department of State officials say they have not received a single 24-hour disclosure statement in the two weeks before the May 16 primary from Swann's campaign, the newspaper reported. A Swann campaign spokesman insisted, "We faxed them every 24 hours. We complied with the law."
