What is the deadline for filing campaign finance reports?

The deadline for filing campaign finance reports varies depending on the type of campaign and the specific reporting period. For statewide candidates and political action committees, the deadline is typically 30 days before an election, while district-level candidates must file within 10 days. Special elections may have shorter reporting periods, with deadlines set by statute. It is important to note that some campaigns have ongoing reporting requirements, and they must file reports on a regular basis throughout their campaign. Failure to meet the deadlines may result in penalties, so it is crucial for candidates and committees to familiarize themselves with the specific reporting requirements and deadlines set by the Oregon Secretary of State's office to ensure compliance and transparency in campaign finance activities.
