SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Principal Campaign Committees
Special Primary Only
All principal campaign committees of
candidates only participating in the
Florida Special Primary shall file a
consolidated Pre-Primary and Year-End
Report on January 16, 2025. (See charts
Special Primary and Special General
Elections
If two elections are held, all principal
campaign committees of candidates who
participate in the Florida Special
Primary and Special General Election
shall file a consolidated Pre-Primary
and Year-End Report on January 16,
2025; a Pre-General Report on March 20,
2025, and a Post-General Report on May
1, 2025. (See charts below for the
closing date for each report.)
Special General Election
If only one election is held, all
principal campaign committees of
candidates who participate in the
Florida Special General Election shall
file a consolidated Pre-General and
Year-End Report on January 16, 2025,
and a Post-General Report on February
27, 2025. (See charts below for the
closing date for each report.)
Note that these reports are in addition
to the campaign committee’s regular
quarterly filings. (See charts below for
the closing date for each report).
Unauthorized Committees (PACs and
Party Committees)
Political committees not filing
monthly are subject to special election
reporting if they make previously
undisclosed contributions or
expenditures in connection with the
Florida Special Primary or Special
General Election by the close of books
for the applicable report(s). (See charts
below for the closing date for each
report.)
Since disclosing financial activity
from two different calendar years on one
report would conflict with the calendar
year aggregation requirements stated in
the Commission’s disclosure rules,
unauthorized committees that trigger
the filing of the consolidated Pre-
Primary and Year-End Report (if two
elections are held) or the consolidated
Pre-General and Year-End Report (if one
election is held) will be required to file
this report on two separate forms: One
form to cover 2024 activity, labeled as
the Year-End Report; and the other form
to cover only 2025 activity, labeled as
the Pre-Primary or Pre-General Report,
as applicable. Both forms must be filed
by January 16, 2025.
Committees filing monthly that make
contributions or expenditures in
connection with the Florida Special
Primary or Special General Election will
continue to file according to the
monthly reporting schedule.
Additional disclosure information for
the Florida special elections may be
found on the FEC website at https://
www.fec.gov/help-candidates-andcommittees/dates-and-deadlines/.
Disclosure of Lobbyist Bundling
Activity
Principal campaign committees, party
committees and leadership PACs that
are otherwise required to file reports in
connection with the special elections
must simultaneously file FEC Form 3L
if they receive two or more bundled
contributions from lobbyists/registrants
or lobbyist/registrant PACs that
aggregate in excess of the lobbyist
bundling threshold during the special
election reporting periods. (See charts
below for closing date of each period.)
11 CFR 104.22(a)(5)(v), (b), 110.17(e)(2),
(f).
The lobbyist bundling disclosure
threshold for calendar year 2024 is
$22,700. This threshold amount may
change in 2025 based upon the annual
cost of living adjustment (COLA). As
soon as the adjusted threshold amount
is available, the Commission will
publish it in the Federal Register and
post it on its website. 11 CFR 104.22(g)
and 110.17(e)(2).
