NC GS § 163-278.40C. Campaign report; nonpartisan election and runoff.

"(3)        Semiannual Reports. - If contributions are received or expenditures made during any part of a calendar year, for which no reports are otherwise required by this section, any and all those contributions and expenditures shall be reported on semiannual reports due on the last Friday in July, covering the period through June 30, and due on the last Friday in January, covering the period through December 31 of the previous year. (1981, c. 837, s. 3; 1985, c. 164, s. 3; 1987 (Reg. Sess., 1988), c. 1028, s. 8; 2001-419, s. 4.)"

So are we to assume that since Councilman Jim Kee have yet to file his 2013 Semiannual Report as required by NC GS § 163-278.40C that he has not accepted any campaign contributions in 2013?

And are we to believe Mayor Robbie Perkins'  2013 Semiannual Report  which indicates he has had no 2013 campaign contributions so far this year?

I'm told the Guilford County Board of Elections has the reports and are holding them for audit before they are posted on line. Seems strange they would not make public the candidates claims as well as the audited results.
