(3) AT THE REQUEST OF A CONTRIBUTOR, A TREASURER OR
SUBTREASURER SHALL ISSUE A CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION RECEIPT FOR ANY
OTHER CONTRIBUTION.
(4) A CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION RECEIPT ISSUED UNDER THIS SECTION
IS EVIDENCE OF THE CONTRIBUTION.
(B) REPORTING OF INFORMATION.
THE INFORMATION FROM A CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION RECEIPT SHALL BE
INCLUDED IN THE CAMPAIGN FINANCE REPORT FILED BY THE TREASURER OR
SUBTREASURER UNDER THIS TITLE.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 33, § 13-206(b)(1), (3), and (4).
In subsection (a)(1) of this section, the reference to issuing a receipt "on"
the form that the State Board prescribes is substituted for the former
reference to issuing a receipt "in" the form that the State Board prescribes
for accuracy.
In subsection (a)(2) of this section, the former references to a "treasurer of
a committee, group, or organization" are deleted as included in the
reference to a "person".
Also in subsection (a)(2) of this section, the former references to sending a
receipt to each person "in whose name" a contribution is made is deleted
for clarity and accuracy.
In subsection (a)(2)(ii) of this section, the phrase "campaign event" is
substituted for the former reference to "any dinner, testimonial, cocktail
party, barbecue, crab feast, or other campaign-related function" for brevity.
As to the substitution of the defined term "campaign finance report" in
subsection (b) of this section for the former reference to "statement of
contributions and expenditures", see General Revisor's Note to this title
and § 1-101 of this article.
Subsection (b) of this section is revised to state that certain information
shall be included in a campaign finance report rather than requiring the
treasurer to "retain all ... receipts ... with his ... records ... and report the
information therein" for clarity and accuracy.
The Election Law Article Review Committee notes, for consideration by the
General Assembly, that the necessity for, or the purpose of, subsection
(a)(4) of this section is not apparent and the General Assembly may wish to
consider the repeal of this provision.
Defined terms: "Campaign finance report" § 1-101
"Contribution" § 1-101
"State Board" § 1-101
"Treasurer" § 1-101
