This legislation,
in response to a ruling by the United States Supreme Court, repeals
requirements related to qualification for and distribution of matching
funds. The bill includes an Other
Special Revenue Funds deallocation to the Commission on Governmental Ethics
and Election Practices of $927,880 in fiscal year 2012-13 for reduced
payments to candidates related to eliminating matching funds. This analysis assumes participation in the
Maine Clean Elections process will decrease due to the elimination of
matching funds. Therefore Other
Special Revenue Funds revenue will decrease from reduced qualifying
contributions. |
