PDC finds reporting violations by candidate Ranga Bandada, imposes $500 penalty (partially suspended)
Summary
The commission found Ranga Bandada violated reporting requirements for C4 reports in the 2025 election, accepted subsequent amendments, and imposed a $500 penalty with $300 suspended conditioned on payment of $200 within 30 days and no further violations for four years.
Staff presented allegations that candidate Ranga (spelling uncertain on the record) Bandada failed to timely and accurately file C4 reports related to the 2025 election; the respondent subsequently filed the missing detail and staff recommended a penalty in accordance with the penalty schedule. Chair Leach found the violation and imposed a $500 penalty, suspending $300 on the condition that $200 be paid within 30 days and there be no further violations for four years.
Staff indicated the respondent had provided all required information prior to the hearing and had no prior violations; the chair nonetheless assessed a monetary penalty with suspension conditioned on payment and future compliance.
