Article 25 - TESTIMONIAL EVENTS AND OTHER POLITICAL EVENTS
Section 19-25-2 - Other political events

(a) Purchase of tickets, goods or services. The purchase of tickets, goods or services at political events or fund raisers which do not constitute testimonial events constitute contributions when the price substantially exceeds the value of the goods or services received, provided however, that a bulk purchase of tickets, goods or services constitutes a contribution. A bulk purchase is made whenever a person purchases tickets in excess of that reasonably necessary for the person's personal use and that of his or her immediate family. The value to be attributed to a contribution which occurs when the price paid substantially exceeds the value of the goods or services is the difference between the price and the fair market value of the goods or services. A treasurer may, if the treasurer so desires, consider the price the value of the contribution. The value attributed to a contribution when a bulk purchase is made is the full value of the bulk purchase.

(b) Donation of goods. The value of goods donated to political events and fund raisers which do not constitute testimonial events are treated in the same manner as donations to testimonial events. (See K.A.R. 19-25-1(c).)
