How to Handle Overlapping Reporting Periods

Remember, each FEC report you file picks up where the last one left off. Even though quarterly filers will soon receive a reporting notice that lists the Q2 coverage period as April 1 through June 30, candidates in states that have held primaries since April 1--and other quarterly filers that made contributions/expenditures in connection with those primaries--should adjust the coverage period to account for the pre-primary reports they filed in connection with those elections. There is no need to re-report the activity disclosed on the earlier report.
