The Daily Fuckup

Kentucky 4th PAC’s pre-primary report did not arrive on time, at least according to a supplemental complaint filed June 3 in an FEC matter. The filing says Kentucky’s deadline for the 2026 pre-primary report was May 7, and that the committee did not submit the report until after the May 19 primary had already passed.

The same complaint says the late report showed Tamarack Aspen, Inc. as the PAC’s funding source for the filing period, with five contributions totaling $3,500,750. It also says Tamarack Aspen was incorporated on March 13, 2026, three days before Kentucky 4th PAC registered with the FEC on March 16.

Those claims are allegations in a complaint, not findings by regulators or a court. But if the filing dates and contribution record hold up, the case is not just about a late disclosure. It is also about whether the money behind the committee was being routed through a newly formed entity in a way that hid the real source of the spending.

For now, the cleanest fact pattern is this: the FEC’s Kentucky primary notice put the pre-primary reporting deadline on May 7; Kentucky voted on May 19; and the complaint says Kentucky 4th PAC filed its report on June 3, after both of those dates. The dispute is what, if anything, that late filing and the Tamarack Aspen transfers say about who was actually financing the PAC.
