candidate or campaign officer. See 2 U.S.C. § 453.
The Election Law Article Review Committee also notes, for consideration
by the General Assembly, that the reference to the filing of certain
campaign reports "during the preceding five calendar years" is ambiguous
under current circumstances. The Election Law Article Review Committee
has revised this section to conform to current practice and in recognition of
the change in circumstances manifested by the change in the length of
campaigns since the provision was enacted, i.e., the formation of a
campaign finance entity for a candidate may not be tied to an "election".
Defined terms: "Campaign finance entity" § 1-101
"Campaign finance report" § 1-101
"Treasurer" § 1-101
13-333. SAME — ASSUMING OFFICE.
(A) IN GENERAL.
AN INDIVIDUAL WHO, WITHIN THE MEANING OF § 13-327 OF THIS SUBTITLE,
HAS FAILED TO FILE A CAMPAIGN FINANCE REPORT THAT IS DUE FROM, OR ON
BEHALF OF, THAT INDIVIDUAL, MAY NOT, UNTIL THE INDIVIDUAL CORRECTS THE
FAILURE TO FILE:
(1) BE DEEMED TO BE ELECTED TO A PUBLIC OR PARTY OFFICE IN THIS
STATE;
(2) TAKE THE OATH OR OTHERWISE ASSUME THE DUTIES OF THE
OFFICE; OR
(3) RECEIVE ANY SALARY OR COMPENSATION FOR THE OFFICE.
(B) CERTIFICATION BY STATE BOARD.
AN OFFICIAL OF THE STATE OR ANY OF ITS POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS MAY NOT
ISSUE A COMMISSION OR ADMINISTER AN OATH OF OFFICE TO AN INDIVIDUAL
UNTIL THAT OFFICIAL RECEIVES CERTIFICATION FROM THE STATE BOARD THAT
ALL CAMPAIGN FINANCE REPORTS DUE UNDER § 13-304 OF THIS SUBTITLE FROM, OR
ON BEHALF OF, THAT INDIVIDUAL HAVE BEEN FILED.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 33, § 13-403(e).
In the introductory language of subsection (a) of this section, the phrase
"within the meaning of" § 13-327 is substituted for the former phrase
"pursuant to" for clarity.
Also in the introductory language of subsection (a) of this section, the
defined term "campaign finance report" is substituted for the former
references to "reports and statements of contributions" for clarity. See
General Revisor's Note to this title and § 1-101 of this article.
Also in the introductory language of subsection (a) of this section, the
