Federal Election Activity periods for special elections (2025)

According to Federal Election Commission regulations concerning "Federal Election Activity" (FEA), political party committees that conduct FEA must pay for this activity with federally permissible funds or, in some cases, may allocate the costs between federal and Levin funds or pay for them entirely with federal funds. For more information, please consult the regulations or see the FEC website for political party committees' making disbursements section.

In order to help committees determine whether their planned voter registration, voter identification, get-out-the-vote (GOTV) and generic campaign activities will constitute FEA, this chart lists the relevant time frames for 2025 special elections.
