Washington, D.C. , Councilwoman Janeese Lewis George played the political fundraising game so well in her mayoral campaign’s opening days that the district’s campaign finance system couldn’t handle it.

Given the “ unprecedented size ” of her initial fundraising filing, Lewis George’s campaign needed to split up their filings because the campaign website couldn’t accept the large report. The councilwoman’s campaign said that they spent “dozens of hours” manually uploading thousands of donor records because of the website’s error. They will later upload an amended report to include more donors.
