| Fiscal Detail and Notes | ||||||
| This legislation could result in Other Special Revenue Funds savings due to decreased payments to qualified candidates. This analysis assumes a certain number of candidates who would otherwise run as Maine Clean Election Act candidates will opt out of the program in order to establish a political action committee and accept more than $10,000 in contributions. During the 2010 election cycle, $334,000 in Maine Clean Election Funds was paid to candidates who established leadership political action committees. | ||||||
