KR: Allred Failed To File As Lobbyist

Allred said he still filed his annual report Friday. Allred was a registered lobbyist in 2009 for The Common Interest, a nonpartisan good-government group. In a press release, the Idaho GOP criticized Allred for missing the deadline, an oversight that can result in fines of up to $50 per day/ Kevin Richert , Idaho Statesman. More here .
