Donation lists show that Embattled Representative Jeremy Durham has given to Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, and did so under a title he has never held.

In the report, Durham was listed as Fairview’s City Manager, a title that he has never held.

Critics said the news of the title and donation was concerning.

“Any time there’s a question about the accuracy of public statements that a public official has made - that’s a major issue for voters,” said Representative Mike Stewart.

Durham said the title was a clerical error and has been resolved with Trump’s campaign. He said his staffer made a mistake while entering his occupation.
