SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Principal Campaign Committees Special Primary Only

    All principal campaign committees of candidates only participating 
in the Alabama Special Primary shall file a Pre-Primary Report on 
August 3, 2017. (See charts below for the closing date for the report).

Special Primary and General Without Runoff

    If only two elections are held, all principal campaign committees 
of candidates participating in the Alabama Special Primary and Special 
General Elections shall file a Pre-Primary Report on August 3, 2017; a 
Pre-General Report on November 30, 2017; and a Post-General Report on

candidates only participating in the

[[Page 24125]]

Alabama Special Primary and Special Runoff Elections shall file a Pre-
Primary Report on August 3, 2017; and a Pre-Runoff Report on September 
14, 2017. (See charts below for the closing date for each report.)

Special Primary, Runoff and General Elections

    All principal campaign committees of candidates participating in 
the Alabama Special Primary, Special Runoff and Special General 
Elections shall file a Pre-Primary Report on August 3, 2017; a Pre-
Runoff Report on September 14, 2017; a Pre-General Report on November 
30, 2017; and a Post-General Report on January 21, 2018. (See charts 
below for the closing date for each report.)
    Note that these reports are in addition to the campaign committee's 
regular quarterly filings. (See charts below for the closing date for 
each report).

Unauthorized Committees (PACs and Party Committees)

    Political committees filing on a semi-annual basis in 2017 are 
subject to special election reporting if they make previously 
undisclosed contributions or expenditures in connection with the 
Alabama Special Primary, Special Runoff or Special General Elections by 
the close of books for the applicable report(s). (See charts below for 
the closing date for each report.)
    Since disclosing financial activity from two different calendar 
years on one report would conflict with the calendar year aggregation 
requirements stated in the Commission's disclosure rules, unauthorized 
committees that trigger the filing of the Post-General Report will be 
required to file this report on two separate forms. One form to cover 
2017 activity, labeled as the Year-End Report; and the other form to 
cover only 2018 activity, labeled as the Post-General Report. Both 
forms must be filed by January 21, 2018.
    Committees filing monthly that make contributions or expenditures 
in connection with the Alabama Special Primary, Special Runoff or 
Special General Election will continue to file according to the monthly 
reporting schedule.
    Additional disclosure information in connection with the Alabama 
Special Elections may be found on the FEC Web site at http://www.fec.gov/info/report_dates.shtml.

Disclosure of Lobbyist Bundling Activity

    Principal campaign committees, party committees and Leadership PACs 
that are otherwise required to file reports in connection with the 
special elections must simultaneously file FEC Form 3L if they receive 
two or more bundled contributions from lobbyists/registrants or 
lobbyist/registrant PACs that aggregate in excess of $17,900 during the 
special election reporting periods. (See charts below for closing date 
of each period.) 11 CFR 104.22(a)(5)(v), (b).

  is new and has not previously filed a report, the first report must cover all activity that occurred before
  the committee registered as a political committee up through the close of books for the first report due.

       1 The reporting period always begins the day after the closing date of the last report filed. If the committee is new and has not previously filed
     a report, the first report must cover all activity that occurred before the committee registered as a political committee up through the close of
     books for the first report due.
       2 Notice that this filing deadline falls on a weekend or federal holiday. Filing deadlines are not extended when they fall on nonworking days.
     Accordingly, reports filed by methods other than registered, certified or overnight mail must be received by close of business on the last business
     day before the deadline.
