2. IN ANY OTHER POSITION THAT EXERCISES GENERAL
OVERALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE CONDUCT OF THE ENTITY.
(2) AN INCUMBENT MEMBER OF A CENTRAL COMMITTEE WHO IS A

SUBTREASURER, OR CAMPAIGN MANAGER OF A CAMPAIGN FINANCE ENTITY MAY

ANOTHER CAMPAIGN FINANCE ENTITY.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from the second, third, and fourth sentences of former Art. 33, §
13-201(c) and, as it related to the qualifications and eligibility of campaign
officers, § 13-202(a).
In subsection (a) of this section, the former reference to an individual who
is not a "citizen, resident" is deleted in light of the reference to being a
"registered voter". The Election Law Article Review Committee assumes
that the General Assembly did not intend to require that a campaign
finance officer be physically present or actually living in the State.
Also in subsection (a) of this section, the Election Law Article Review
Committee notes, for consideration by the General Assembly, that the
requirement that a campaign manager be a registered voter of the State is
generally ignored and not adhered to and is unenforced, since the identity
of a campaign manager generally is not reported to or known by the State
Board.
Also in subsection (a) of this section, the former reference to "any election
or primary election" is deleted as surplusage.
In subsections (b)(1) and (c) of this section, the defined term "campaign
finance entity" is substituted for the former references to "candidate or
political committee" for clarity. See General Revisor's Note to this title and
§ 1-101 of this article.
In the introductory language of subsection (b)(1) of this section, the defined
term "candidate" is substituted for the former phrase "candidate for public
or party office or nomination to public or party office" for brevity
