1 Date Received Enter the date the committee obtained possession or control of the contribution. For instance, in the case of a check, report the date the check was received, which may differ from the date the check was written and the date the check was deposited. For contributions received by electronic transaction (such as credit card, debit account, or wire transfer, including those received over the Internet), report the date the committee received or had control of the credit/debit account information or other payment information, or the date the committee received or had control of the funds, whichever is earlier. Chapter 2 provides several examples of different types of contributions and when they are deemed “received.” 2 Contributor Information Itemize persons that have contributed to the committee a cumulative amount of $100 or more during the calendar year. Provide each contributor’s full name, street address, city, state, and zip code. Many local agencies require itemization at a lower threshold so check with your elections office. Ex 9.4 - Wade Murphy contributed $25 to your committee during the first reporting period of the calendar year. On your committee’s first campaign statement, Wade’s contribution was not required to be itemized. During the second reporting period, Wade contributed $99 to your committee. Since Wade's cumulative contributions for the calendar year are now $100 or more, Wade must be itemized on the second campaign statement. The $99 contribution will be reported under “amount received this period” and $124 will be reported as the “cumulative to date” total. Wade's name, address, occupation, and employer must also be disclosed.
