CARAVIELLO HALL OF BLAME Caraviello will probably get dinged by campaign finance, as any contribution over $200 needs to include the contributor's occupation and employer, and Caraviello received 20 donations combining for $11,000 that do not comply, including one $1000 donation that does not include an address. He'll be required to send up to two letters to those folks to get their employer and occupation, and if they don't respond.... it doesn't matter, he can keep the funds. It doesn't sound great, but it does happen, and happened to Lungo Koehn in September 2021 with 10 donors totalling $5600. 7 of 10 sent in their info.
