FOR IMMEDIATE
RELEASE
 
FUNDRAISING
PERIOD #1 FOR 2013 ELECTIONS ENDED YESTERDAY
Candidates to
file campaign finance disclosures with CFB by Thursday, July 15
 

July 12, 2010 – Yesterday was the last day of the
first reporting period for the 2013 citywide elections.  All potential
candidates with active campaigns for the 2013 election, including
non-participants, are required by law to provide a detailed report of all
financial activity covering the beginning of the election cycle, January 12,
2010 through July 11, 2010.
 
After legislation was enacted
to extend term limits from two to three terms, some candidates from the 2009
elections chose to freeze or suspend their campaigns for the next citywide
elections to take place in 2013. Candidates who froze or suspended their
campaigns following the change in law are required to file disclosures on
Thursday.
 
FILING DAY DETAILS
 
Candidates may deliver statements to the CFB by hand,
submit their filings electronically, or send the materials by mail (as long
as mailed submissions are postmarked by July 15).
 
As disclosures are filed on July 15, the CFB will update
its website with the latest financial
information throughout the day.  A press advisory will be issued to
alert interested parties each time that new information is posted to the
website. 
 
Most financial information for campaign filers may be
found in two places:
 
·        
The CFB’s campaign
finance summary page contains summary financial information for all
candidates who file with the CFB. 
 
·        
Detailed information about individual
transactions can be found in the CFB’s searchable
online database.
 
Information on the contribution and spending limits in
effect for the 2013 election, as well as the thresholds to be eligible for
public funds, can be found here.
