Last-Minute Filing Frenzy!

October 30, 2006

For some committees, last week’s Pre-General report was the final FEC filing required before Election Day. Many filers, however, may be required to submit additional notices to disclose last-minute activity. Campaign committees must disclose within 48 hours any contribution of $1,000 or more received between October 19 and November 4. (File FEC Form 6 (Instructions) or our on-line webform.) PACs, party committees and individuals making last-minute independent expenditures must file 24-hour notices. (See our tip from October 2 for details.) Individuals, 527 organizations and other groups making electioneering communications that aggregate $10,000 or more must also file 24-Hour notices to disclose the funds they raised and spent. (File FEC Form 9 (Instructions) or our on-line webforms.)
