(E) VACANCY.
(1) A TREASURER MAY RESIGN BY COMPLETING A RESIGNATION FORM
THAT THE STATE BOARD PRESCRIBES AND FILING THE FORM WITH THE BOARD
WHERE THE PERSONAL TREASURER WAS ESTABLISHED.
(2) IF A VACANCY OCCURS IN THE OFFICE OF TREASURER, THE
CANDIDATE PROMPTLY SHALL APPOINT A NEW TREASURER IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THIS SECTION.
REVISOR'S NOTE: Subsection (a) of this section is new language added to
clarify that this section only applies to a candidate who elects to use a
personal treasurer.
Subsections (b) through (e) of this section are new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 33, § 13-201(a)(2), the second
sentence of (a)(1)(i), and, as they related to the establishment of a personal
treasurer for a candidate, (b) and the first sentence of (a) and (c).
In subsection (b) of this section, the reference to a candidate "not
receiv[ing] or disburs[ing] money or any other thing of value through a
personal treasurer" is substituted for the former reference to a "person not
act[ing] as a treasurer" for clarity and consistency with § 13-207(b) of this
subtitle.
In subsection (c) of this section, the former references to a "campaign"
treasurer are deleted in light of the use of the defined term "treasurer".
In subsection (e)(1) of this section, the reference to the board "where the
personal treasurer was established" is substituted for the former reference
to the board "where the original appointment was filed" for clarity and
accuracy.
Also in subsection (e)(1) of this section, the former reference to "sign[ing]"
a resignation form is deleted as included in the reference to "completing" a
resignation form.
In subsection (e)(2) of this section, the reference to a candidate's
appointment of a new treasurer in the event of a "vacancy" is added for
clarity and to conform to the presumed legislative intent. The Election Law
Article Review Committee calls this addition to the attention of the
General Assembly.
Defined terms: "Candidate" § 1-101
"State Board" § 1-101
"Treasurer" § 1-101
13-207. POLITICAL COMMITTEES — IN GENERAL.
(A) APPLICABILITY.

CLUB.
