A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO AMEND THE CAMPAIGN LAWS TO CHANGE THE SYSTEM OF POSTPRIMARY REPORTING FOR STATEWIDE NONJUDICIAL CANDIDATES AND FOR CANDIDATES FOR THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  G.S. 163-278.9(a)(3) reads as rewritten:
"(3)	Postprimary Report(s) for Nonstatewide, Nonlegislative Candidates and for Judicial Candidates. – The treasurer shall file a report with the Board no later than the 30th day after the primary election if the candidate was eliminated in the primary.  If there is a second primary, the treasurer shall file a report with the Board no later than the 30th day after the second primary election if the candidate was eliminated in the second primary.  This subdivision applies only to candidates for offices not elected statewide, excluding candidates for the General Assembly, and to candidates for all judicial offices, regardless of whether elected statewide."
Sec. 2.  G.S. 163-278.9(a) is amended by adding a new subdivision to read:
"(3a)	Postprimary Report(s) for Statewide Candidates, Legislative Candidates, and Nonjudicial Candidates. – The treasurer shall file a report with the Board no later than the 60th day before the general election.  This subdivision applies only to candidates for offices that are elected statewide and to candidates for the General Assembly, but it does not apply to judicial offices, regardless of whether elected statewide.  An individual who was defeated in a primary election is a candidate for purposes of the reporting required by this subdivision."
Sec. 3.  This act becomes effective January 1, 1996, and applies to all primaries and elections occurring on or after that date.
