Ok folks, campaign finance reporting time has arrived.  I have done a little research and was only really surprised by a couple things.  Make sure you look up this information for yourself by visiting:

A BIG No No!  Maybe it's a family thing.

Keep checking on the updated filings.

  1. The PAC that Mr. Cannon accepted money from is:
    IFAPAC
    4202 Green Valley Road
    Monrovia, MD, 21770

    NAIFA's Political Action Committee is one of the largest PACs in the insurance industry and ranks among the top 1 percent of all 3,700 PACs registered with the Federal Election Commission. In the last election cycle, the national IFAPAC and the 50 state IFAPACs contributed approximately $3 million to federal and state candidates and committees.

    The term Insurance and Financial Advisors Political Action Committee (IFAPAC) describes the PAC sponsored by NAIFA at the federal level and the PACs sponsored by each state association.

    I wonder what they want from him and/or what he has to do for them if elected?
