SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
Principal Campaign Committees
All principal campaign committees of candidates participating in the Hawaii Special General shall file a 12day PreGeneral Report on December 23, 2002; and a 30day PostGeneral Report on February 3, 2003. (See chart below for the closing date for each report). Unauthorized Committees (PACs and Party Committees)
Political Committees that file on a quarterly basis in 2002 are
subject to special election reporting if they make previously undisclosed contributions or
[[Page 70600]]
expenditures in connection with the Hawaii Special General Election by
the close of books for the applicable report(s). (See chart below for the closing date for each report).
Since disclosing financial activity from two different calendar years on one report would conflict with the calendar year aggregation requirements stated in the Commission's disclosure rules, unauthorized committees that trigger the filing of the PostGeneral Report will be required to file this report on two separate forms. One form to cover 2002 activity, labeled as the YearEnd Report; and the other form to cover only 2003 activity, labeled as the PostGeneral Report. Both forms must be filed by February 3, 2003.
Committees filing monthly that support candidates in the Hawaii
Special General should continue to file according to the monthly reporting schedule.
