All candidates for political office have a campaign finance report that must be filed by Tuesday, October 9.
Shreveport Mayor Ollie Tyler is the only mayoral candidate whose report is presently online.
Tyler has campaign receipts of $120,323.28. The total disbursements $54,314.04.
As of the close of the reporting period, campaign funds on hand were $93,557.58. Tyler started the year with contributions left over from her 2014 campaign as well as additional donations after her election.
The maximum contribution for this year during the primary is $2500. There are 27 max donations listed in the report.
There were 25 contributions listed in amounts of $1,000 to $2,499.
As can be expected most of the contributions are from companies and individuals that have contracts with the City of Shreveport. Such is the power of the incumbency.
