Am I a state, county or municipal candidate or committee?

If you are unsure if you are a state, county, or municipal candidate or committee, contact our office at 303-894-2200, ext. 6383 or cpfhelp@sos.state.co.us for assistance.

 

What about major contributor notices and notices of independent expenditures?

These calendars do not include the 24 Hour Notice of Major Contributor or the 48 Hour Notice of Independent Expenditure reports that may be required based on certain activity within a committee. The period during which these reports may be required begins 30 days before the primary and general election (May 27th and October 7th, respectively) and runs through the date of the election. Please refer to the Campaign Finance Manual (PDF) for information detailing when these reports may be required.
