The Bronx Democratic Party reported hundreds of thousands of dollars in previously undisclosed donations on Friday following reporting from New York Focus that found the group had failed to disclose dozens of political contributions — a violation of state law.

A political action committee dedicated to electing Democrats to the state Assembly donated nearly $700,000 to the Bronx party, according to the new disclosures. The honorary chair of the committee is Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie, who represents part of the Bronx and is one of the most powerful figures in state politics.

State Senator and Bronx Democratic Party head Jamaal Bailey told New York Focus that the omission was due to “inaccurate record keeping.” He said that the party would improve its practices going forward.

“There’s no impropriety. There’s nothing wrong. We simply didn’t file when we were supposed to,” Bailey said.

The New York City comptroller is arguably the city’s most powerful official after the mayor. He is the city’s financial steward and watchdog of an approximately $110 billion budget — larger than most US states’ and many countries’. He’s responsible for managing more than $270 billion in pension investments, monitoring government contracts, and rooting out fraud in city agencies.

But that power also makes him a potential target for companies seeking lucrative city contracts.

Attorneys at a top securities law firm in New York City, Pomerantz LLP, have donated thousands to Comptroller Brad Lander, who is now running for mayor, this election cycle. He’s marked a portion of those donations to be matched by taxpayer dollars. In the same time period, the city has given the firm big business, renewing its long-standing contract and hiring it for the coveted lead counsel position in two class action lawsuits led by city pension funds.
