Bill > HB1116

This bill amends and reenacts sections of the North Dakota Century Code related to campaign contribution statements for candidates seeking a school district office. The key provisions are: 1. Candidates for school district office must now file a campaign contribution statement as required by section 16.1-08.1-02.3, in addition to filing a statement of interests. 2. The campaign contribution statement requirements for school district office candidates are similar to those for other candidates, such as reporting contributions over $200 and the campaign fund balance. However, school district candidates in districts with a population under 5,000 are exempt from these reporting requirements. 3. School district candidates must file their campaign contribution statements with the school district business manager, rather than the county or city auditor. 4. The secretary of state's authority to audit campaign statements and assess fines for violations does not apply to statements filed by school district office candidates.
