FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION
[Notice 2023--18]
Filing Dates for the New York Special Election in the 3rd
Congressional District
AGENCY: Federal Election Commission.
ACTION: Notice of filing dates for special election.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: New York has scheduled a special election on February 13,
2024, to fill the U.S. House of Representatives seat in the 3rd
Congressional District that became vacant when Representative George
Santos was expelled from Congress.
Committees required to file reports in connection with the Special
General Election on February 13, 2024, shall file a 12-day Pre-General
and a 30-Day Post-General Report.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Elizabeth S. Kurland, Information
Division, 1050 First Street NE, Washington, DC 20463; Telephone: (202)
694-1100; Toll Free (800) 424-9530.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Principal Campaign Committees
All principal campaign committees of candidates who participate in
the New York Special General Election shall file a 12-day Pre-General
Report on February 1, 2024, and a 30-day Post-General Report on March
14, 2024. (See chart below for the closing date for each report.)
Note that these reports are in addition to the campaign committee's
regular quarterly filings. (See chart below for the closing date for
each report).
Unauthorized Committees (PACs and Party Committees)
Political committees not filing monthly are subject to special
election reporting if they make previously undisclosed contributions or
expenditures in connection with the New York Special General Election
by the close of books for the applicable report(s). (See chart below
for the closing date for each report.)
Since disclosing financial activity from two different calendar
years on one
[[Page 86898]]
report would conflict with the calendar year aggregation requirements
stated in the Commission's disclosure rules, unauthorized committees
that trigger the filing of the Pre-General Report will be required to
file this report on two separate forms: One form to cover 2023
activity, labeled as the Year-End Report; and the other form to cover
only 2024 activity, labeled as the Pre-General Report. Both forms must
be filed by February 1, 2024.
Committees filing monthly that make contributions or expenditures
in connection with the New York Special General Election will continue
to file according to the monthly reporting schedule.
Additional disclosure information for the New York special election
may be found on the FEC website at <a href="https://www.fec.gov/help-candidates-and-committees/dates-and-deadlines/">https://www.fec.gov/help-candidates-and-committees/dates-and-deadlines/</a>.
Disclosure of Lobbyist Bundling Activity
Principal campaign committees, party committees and leadership PACs
that are otherwise required to file reports in connection with the
special election must simultaneously file FEC Form 3L if they receive
two or more bundled contributions from lobbyists/registrants or
lobbyist/registrant PACs that aggregate in excess of the lobbyist
bundling threshold during the special election reporting periods. (See
chart below for closing date of each period.) 11 CFR 104.22(a)(5)(v),
(b), 110.17(e)(2), (f).
The lobbyist bundling disclosure threshold for calendar year 2023
is $21,800. This threshold amount may change in 2024 based upon the
annual cost of living adjustment (COLA). As soon as the adjusted
threshold amount is available, the Commission will publish it in the
Federal Register and post it on its website. 11 CFR 104.22(g) and
110.17(e)(2).
