Bill > HB1157

This bill amends a section of North Dakota election law to specify that candidates must maintain dedicated campaign accounts that are specifically non-interest-bearing and completely separate from their personal bank accounts. The purpose of this requirement is to promote transparency in campaign finance by ensuring clear distinctions between campaign funds and personal funds, which helps prevent potential financial impropriety and makes it easier to track and report campaign-related financial transactions. By mandating separate, non-interest-bearing accounts, the bill aims to create a straightforward mechanism for accurately documenting and monitoring campaign finances, ultimately supporting the integrity of the electoral process.
