 COLUMBIA (WACH / AP) – Attorney General Alan Wilson’s campaign says that a corrected campaign report is a “week or so” away from being released.

The states top prosecutor announced last week that ten to fifteen donations for his January 2011 inaugural ball were not reported.  The Wilson campaign calls them clerical errors.

Campaign consultant Adam Fogle said he hoped to file an amended report this week, however, pointed out that a thorough review will take more time. Fogle says the campaign has asked an independent accountant to review deposit records to ensure all contributions are properly recorded.

Wilson, who is the first-term Republican attorney general, funded the gala through his campaign, rather than creating a separate account, as governors do for such events.
