Campaign Finance Filing Requirements
From the CASB School Board Candidate Guide:
School board candidates must comply with the Colorado Fair Campaign Practices Act (FCPA). All candidates must file a candidate affidavit with the Colorado Secretary of State's office within 10 days of becoming a candidate. Candidates are also required to report contributions and expenditures through the Secretary of State's online TRACER ;program. These reports are required even if you spend $0.00 campaigning.
