The Public Disclosure Commission has sent overdue notices to 41 candidates who appear to have missed the Oct. 15 deadline for mandatory pre-general election spending reports.
State law requires candidates who are participating in the general election and registered as full reporters (required for those who raise and spend more than $7,000) to file expenditure (C-4) reports 21 and 7 days prior to primary and general election days regardless of campaign activity. Reports are also due on the tenth day of the month following the election.
The pre-general election report due on Oct. 15 covers campaign spending during the period between Sept. 1 and Oct. 14. The PDC maintains a list of filing deadlines and other reporting resources on its website.
On Oct. 16, the candidates below received notices of possible non-compliance for not filing their pre-general election expenditure reports by the deadline.
Campaigns that fail to file mandatory reports may be subject to enforcement action. Improving compliance with mandatory expenditure reporting deadlines is one of the Commission’s strategic goals.
