Notice of Proposed Rule

Department:

DEPARTMENT OF STATE

Division:

Division of Elections

Chapter:

ELECTIONS

Overview

RULE:

1S-2.047

State Campaign Matching Funds Program

PURPOSE:

The proposed rule implements the requirements of the Florida Election Campaign Financing Act found within Sections 106.30-.36, F.S. The rule was formerly contained in Rule 1S-2.017, F.A.C., but is being removed from that rule as not being completely relevant to the electronic filing of campaign finance treasurers’ reports. The proposed rule incorporates up-to-date procedures and forms to be used by the Division of Elections and by candidates eligible for state campaign matching funds.

SUMMARY:

The proposed rule describes how eligible candidates request state campaign matching funds, when the distribution of those funds occur, the reports required to be filed and their deadlines, the required supporting documentation, and how appeals of adverse decisions are to be made. It further contains procedures for candidates who desire to voluntarily abide by campaign expenditure limits but who do not participate in the matching funds program.

RULEMAKING AUTHORITY:

20.10(3), 106.33, 106.35(1), (5) FS.

LAW:

106.30-.36 FS.
