Description
Federal campaign finance laws apply to candidates for U.S. Senate and U.S. House of Representatives in both the Primary and General Election. For information on federal campaign finance laws, please refer to the Federal Election Commission (FEC): www.fec.gov OR (800) 424-9530.
When obtaining signatures on a petition, you MUST fill in the name of the office (i.e. Governor, U.S. Representative, etc.) you are seeking BEFORE getting any signatures. For State Representative and State Senate (General Assembly), you must use the district name, such as Washington 3-2 or Caledonia Senate District. You can add the towns in the district if you choose (in multiple-town districts), but if you do not also include the district name, your petition will not be accepted.
Although Vermont statute is silent on when to start obtaining signatures on a petition, please note that if you obtain signatures too far in advance, some of those signors may move from the town they lived in when they originally signed the petition, invalidating that signature.
