DescriptionSACRAMENTO — Outgoing Secretary of State Kevin Shelley has extended his departure date, which was originally set for today, until the the end of the week, citing "purposes of administrative convenience."

Shelley announced Feb. 4 that he was resigning at month's end. Federal and state officials are probing how his office spent federal funds intended to increase voting turnout, as well as whether his campaign received improper contributions.

To replace Shelley, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has nominated former state Sen. Bruce McPherson, whose appointment is pending in the Legislature. In the interim, Shelley's chief deputy, Kathy Mitchell, will be acting secretary of state.
