They showed us theirs

-

Halfway through December, the eight would-be Council speakers have lived up to their word to disclose all campaign contributi­ons and expenditur­es during this month. Good. Due to a wrinkle in the Campaign Finance Board calendar, current monetary activity isn’t shown until Jan. 16, two weeks after members elect their next leader. Which is why we asked for early show and tell. The tally: Robert Cornegy had 48 contributi­ons totaling $34,450, and spent $4,983; Corey Johnson: $50 in, $43,115 out (much of it for compliance costs); Mark Levine: $750 in, $2,285 out; Donovan Richards: zero activity; Ydanis Rodriguez: zero in, $4,000 out; Ritchie Torres: $50 in, $1,020 out; Jimmy Van Bramer: zero in, $17,537 out; Jumaane Williams: $100 in, $42 out.

They told us where the cash is coming from and going to; they should post that online for all to see.
