City of San Bernardino Candidate Information Guide

Answering Your Questions A. Must we wait until $2,000 or more is received to file a Form 410? No. You may file a Form 410 prior to committee qualification. Check the “Not Yet Qualified” box. Once you have reached the $2,000 threshold, file an amendment to report the date the committee qualified. B. May our committee use a mail receiving and forwarding service as the committee’s street address on the Form 410? No. Either the committee’s street address or the treasurer’s street address (home or business) must be provided. A post office box may be used as a mailing address. C. As a candidate, may I be the designated treasurer on the Form 410?

Yes. You may be the treasurer or assistant treasurer.

D. May more than one candidate control a single committee to run for office?

Yes. Each candidate should file a Form 501 prior to raising or spending any money. For both the Form 410 and Form 460, each candidate must sign the verification, in addition to the treasurer or assistant treasurer. If the committee is controlled by more than three candidates, one candidate may sign on behalf of the other candidates.
