The city’s Campaign Finance Board has hit Assemblywoman Latrice Walker with $3,300 in fines for violating the Big Apple’s political spending regulations during her ill-fated 2019 run for Public Advocate, records show.
Regulators determined that the Brooklyn Democrat — best known as one of the main authors and chief defenders of New York’s controversial bail reform law — accepted contributions in excess of the city limits and failed to disclose, according to a CFB statement on Monday.
Walker netted just 366 in the February special election that year, just a fraction of the nearly 42,000 votes received by the victor, current Public Advocate Jumaane Williams, in the low-turnout contest.

The Brooklyn lawmaker is not the only lawmaker to run afoul of the CFB’s guidelines in recent months.
Mayor Eric Adams’ political operation was hit with nearly $20,000 in penalties last month for violating regulations over its fundraising for Hizzoner’s transition into City Hall and inaugural celebration.
