HTN: Guilty Pleas in Election Case

Former West Seneca Supervisor Paul Clark has pleaded guilty to misdemeanor violations of election laws. Clark has admitted to not reporting thousands of dollars in contributions and payments from his 2007 campaign for County Executive. Businessman Roger Peck also pleaded guilty in connection with the payments. Prosecutors say Clark did not report ten-thousand dollars in contributions from Peck. That money went to pay a third man, who ran a website disparaging to Clark's political opponent. The DA's office does not expect the men to serve any jail time, and have agreed to drop felony charges.
