Commission debates scope and frequency of candidate reminders to reduce filings errors

Commissioners discussed whether the commission should commit to sending reminders to candidates about campaign‑finance deadlines on an ongoing basis or treat the chair's planned email as a time‑limited experiment. Commissioner Lowe said the working group has seen many avoidable late filings and proposed attaching a deadlines PDF to any email. Commissioner Solis argued for a single email at the start of each election cycle to reduce capacity strain and avoid repeatedly sending reminders.
