Audit shows funds misused in post convention finances
The audit reveals improper handling of funds for the convention, with countersignature issues on checks, an overrun of the entertainment budget by 313,115.20, and unclear records on several disbursements including a 380 impulse check and a 1,000 payment to a rodeo promoter. Davis cites missing countersignatures, dubious yearbook and advertising expenses, and police protections charged to the bureau.
