Do I need to fill out Candidate Financial Disclosure forms?

Under new Campaign Finance guidelines, all candidates must either appoint themselves as treasurer for their campaign, or they may appoint someone else using a C-1 form. Upon receiving or expending $500, candidates are required to create a Campaign Finance account through the Secretary of State's Campaign Finance Portal and to file monthly Campaign Finance Disclosure reports during the year in which the Election for the office they are seeking is taking place. 

Current candidates and officeholders  with open reporting are required to file annual reports in non-election years.

For more information, contact the Elections Department at 208-446-1030.
