A Draper council candidate was booted from the race after missing a filing deadline by one minute. Now he says the city’s clock was wrong — and an official misstated the deadline.

He was booted from last week’s primary election for Draper city council after officials said he was one minute late to make a campaign filing.

Now, Hubert Huh is suing the city, saying the clock in their administrative office was more than two minutes fast, and the city recorder provided the wrong date in a notification of the campaign finance disclosure deadline.

On July 19, city recorder Laura Oscarson sent an email to all city council candidates, telling them to disregard a letter she had mailed to them, notifying them of an August deadline for the "final" campaign finance disclosure.
