Questions on the Campaign Code for public comment
The City of Santa Fe Ethics and Campaign Review Board is asking for
public written comment on how to answer several questions. Please
email your written comments by June 7, 2017 to Geralyn Cardenas
(City Clerk’s office) at [bot protected email address] .
1. How does the term “entity,” as it appears in various provisions
of §9-2 of the Campaign Code (e.g., in §§9-2.3K, 9-2.6, or 9-2.12 B),
relate to the definition of “business or organizational contributor,”
as it is used in §9-2.3 J (2)?
a. Please provide an example(s) of an “entity” as found in §§9-
2.3K, 9-2.6, or 9-2.12 B.
b. Can an “entity” ever be an individual?
c. How is an “entity” distinguishable from a “business or
organizational contributor” in §9-2.3 J (2)?
2. When the following group gives money or in-kind services in a
campaign are they a “business or organizational contributor” or
an independent expenditure “entity”?
a. Real estate firm
b. Restaurant
c. Teacher’s union
d. Political party
e. Based on your answers, do any relevant exemptions in
§9-2.6 apply to any of these groups?
f. Based on your answers, if the candidate accepts the
money or in-kind services from any of these groups,
does the candidate have to add the tag line to his/her
literature: “This campaign material is supported in part
by donations from an organization that is not required
to disclose its contributors to the Santa Fe City Clerk.”
3. What do the city staff and the public suggest as the best ways
to enforce the provisions of §9-2.6?
Thank you.
