Walker’s campaign says he paid off presidential debt last month

Gov. Scott Walker paid off his remaining presidential campaign debt last month, meeting his promise to take care care of his outstanding bills by the end of 2016, according to a memo his campaign circulated this afternoon.

Walker still owed $140,635 at the end of November as he continued to whittle away at the more the $1.2 million he owed when he dropped out of the race in September 2015.

According to the memo, Walker’s state campaign finished the year with just more than $59,000 in the bank. It offered no other details.

The reports for his federal and state accounts are expected to be filed in the coming days, his campaign said.
