In December 2005, the Connecticut General Assembly enacted, and Governor M. Jodi Rell signed, the most sweeping reform of the State’s campaign finance laws since the post-Watergate era. Public Act 05-5 of the October 29 Special Session, and the subsequent amendments to that Act, incorporate vast revisions to the manner in which political campaigns are financed, especially with respect to the statewide offices and the General Assembly. These revisions have been codified in Chapter 155 (traditional private campaign funding) and Chapter 157 (public campaign financing) of the General Statutes, hereinafter referred to as the Citizens’ Election Program.

In general terms, the comprehensive campaign finance reform legislation contained several major components:

 Creation of the voluntary Citizens’ Election Program (or “CEP”), whereby qualified candidates for statewide offices, state senate and state representative may receive public grants of campaign funds if they raise a threshold amount from individuals in small denominations, not to exceed $100, and agree to abide by spending limits and other program requirements;

 Limitations on contributions by communicator lobbyists, their spouses and dependent children, and prohibition on bundling contributions, as well as strict prohibitions on contributions from principals of state contractors and prospective state contractors, their spouses and dependent children;

 New contribution limits on PACs and political parties to candidates;

 New restrictions on the number of PACs that an individual can establish or control;

 Development and oversight of a pilot program for public financing of municipal campaigns (the City of New Haven implemented the Democracy Fund, for mayoral campaigns);

 More frequent campaign disclosure reporting requirements;

 The centralization of all campaign finance related functions, including the filing of reports, issuing of advice, auditing and verification, compliance and enforcement in a single agency—the State Elections Enforcement Commission (hereinafter the “SEEC”); and

 Development, design and implementation of a new electronic campaign reporting information system, eCRIS, to replace the system administered by the Office of the Secretary of the State.

A Report of the Connecticut State Elections Enforcement Commission The Status of the Citizens’ Election Fund as of December 31, 2012 Issued August 2013

The CEP is dependent upon funding from the Citizens’ Election Fund (“CEF” or the “Fund”). The CEF was established to provide public campaign grants to participating candidates who qualify under the CEP’s requirements. The CEP became available to qualified candidates in any special election for the General Assembly held after December 31, 2006, and to qualified statewide and General Assembly candidates in primaries and regular elections thereafter. In accordance with section 9-716 (b) of the Connecticut General Statutes, the SEEC must report biennially whether there are sufficient funds in the CEF to pay grants to qualifying participating candidates expected to compete in such primaries and elections. The 2012 CEF Sufficiency Report, released in March 2012, projected that the CEF would contain enough funds to cover the cost of the 2012 elections.

Additionally, section 9-716 (a) of the Connecticut General Statutes provides, in relevant part, as follows:

Not later than June 1, 2007, and annually thereafter, the State Elections Enforcement Commission shall issue a report on the status of the Citizens’ Election Fund during the previous calendar year. Such report shall include the amount of moneys deposited in the fund, the sources of moneys received by category, the number of contributions, the number of contributors, the amount of moneys expended by category, the recipients of moneys distributed from the fund and an accounting of the costs incurred by the commission in administering the provisions of sections 9-700 to 9-716, inclusive.

As required by this law, this report addresses the financial status of the CEF, as of December 31, 2012. The SEEC used a modified accrual basis to prepare the financial statements in this report. Such accounting practice is consistent with GAAP, also known as “generally accepted accounting principles.”

II. THE CITIZENS’ ELECTION FUND (CEF)

A. Purpose and Statutory Authority

The CEF, which was created pursuant to section 9-701 of the Connecticut General Statutes, is a non-lapsing account within the General Fund, and does not include tax revenues. It is comprised primarily of funds derived from the sale of abandoned or unclaimed property in the state’s custody (escheats) pursuant to section 3-69a of the Connecticut General Statutes. The State Treasurer has administrative responsibilities for the escheats. See generally, Part III of Chapter 32 of the Connecticut General Statutes. The unclaimed property program is explained on the State Treasurer’s website http://www.state.ct.us/ott/. Such abandoned property typically includes funds left in savings or checking accounts, stocks, bonds or mutual fund shares, travelers’ checks or money orders, life insurance policies, and safe deposit box contents. In addition, the CEF receives funds from voluntary contributions and interest on the Fund’s assets.

A Report of the Connecticut State Elections Enforcement Commission The Status of the Citizens’ Election Fund as of December 31, 2012 Issued August 2013

B. Deposits into the CEF

Escheats

In each fiscal year, the State Treasurer is required by section 3-69a (a) (2) of the Connecticut General Statutes to deposit into the CEF the same amount as in the prior fiscal year, adjusted in accordance with any change in the consumer price index for all urban consumers in the preceding fiscal year.

Public Act 11‐6 made a reduction in the escheats amount deposited into the CEF, effectively reducing the amount to be deposited into the account every year going forward by approximately forty percent. In fiscal year ending June 30, 2012 alone, this meant a reduction of $7,955,086 from $18,555,086 to $10,600,000. Absent a statutory change, this drastically reduced funding will continue indefinitely, and ultimately could result in an insufficiency of the Fund.

For the calendar year ending December 31, 2012, the State Treasurer deposited $10,430,945 into the CEF. That amount was for the payment of campaign grants to candidates. Schedule A contains a breakdown of the total deposits into the CEF for the year ending December 31, 2012.

Establishment of Reserve Account

Pursuant to section 9-716 (c) of the Connecticut General Statutes, the SEEC established a reserve account within the CEF. Each year, the first $25,000 of funds deposited into the CEF must be deposited into this account. In 2012, the required $25,000 was deposited into the reserve account for the 2012 calendar year. The reserve account can be used solely during the week prior to any election or primary to make certain payments to participating candidates. If candidates received reduced grants due to insufficiency of revenues to pay the full amount, as projected by the SEEC in the report due at the beginning of a state election year, then the SEEC can make up the difference using the reserve account. The reserve account currently has a balance of $200,000.

Interest Earnings

In accordance with section 9-701 of the Connecticut General Statutes, “investment earnings credited to the assets of the fund shall become part of the assets of the fund.” Accordingly, the CEF earns interest on the deposits to the Fund. As reported in Schedule A, a total interest of $26,971 was earned in this calendar year.

Corporate Taxes

Section 9-750 of the Connecticut General Statutes prescribes that if the sale of abandoned property (escheats) by the State Treasurer leads to insufficient funds to produce the statutory amount required to be deposited in the CEF, the difference is made up from corporate tax revenues. This was not necessary during the period covered by this report.

A Report of the Connecticut State Elections Enforcement Commission The Status of the Citizens’ Election Fund as of December 31, 2012 Issued August 2013

Voluntary Contributions

Any individual, committee or other entity may make voluntary contributions to the CEF. As reflected in Schedules B and C, there were nine (9) contributors who made voluntary contributions, and the aggregate amount of their contributions was $1,031.

Refunds of Surplus Grant Funds

Grant recipients are required to return any surplus funds to the CEF after the election. The amount of refunds received and deposited into the CEF during the 2012 calendar year was $173,628. Notably, the distribution of surplus for the November 2012 election cycle largely occurred after the period covered in this report.

Total Deposits into the CEF

The aggregate amount deposited into the CEF from all sources was $10,844,754, which is reported in Schedule A.

C. Expenditures from the CEF

Grants to Qualified Candidates

During the period covered by this report, the total amount distributed by the SEEC from the CEF for all candidate grants was $10,785,371. These funds were distributed almost entirely to candidates in the 2012 regular election for the General Assembly. There was one special election for state representative in which two grants were awarded.

For reference, the 2012 CEF Sufficiency Report, released in March 2012, projected that the CEF would contain enough funds to cover the cost of the 2012 elections, estimated to be $10,104,729.

D. Administrative Costs of the CEP

Prior to the passage of Public Act 09-3, section 9-701 of the Connecticut General Statutes permitted the State Elections Enforcement Commission to deduct and retain up to $2.3 million per fiscal year from the CEF for costs incurred by the Commission in administering the Citizens’ Election Program. The statute permitted amounts from each allocation that were not expended to be carried over to succeeding fiscal years.

Effective September 8, 2009, Public Act 09-3 of the June special session amended section 9-701 of the Connecticut General Statutes and repealed the provision. The monies to cover the administrative costs for the CEP were no longer deposited into the CEF and then removed at the request of the SEEC to the CEP Administrative Account. The administration of the CEP is no longer funded from the CEF. Rather the CEP Administrative Account began to be funded from the General Fund from appropriations approved by the Legislature, like most other state agency accounts, and, like most other accounts of state agencies, that account lapses at fiscal year’s end.

A Report of the Connecticut State Elections Enforcement Commission The Status of the Citizens’ Election Fund as of December 31, 2012 Issued August 2013

Effective July 1, 2011, Public Act 11-48 significantly altered the structure of the SEEC. The budget was reduced by almost 40% and the staff was reduced from 53 to 34. Since then, some positions have been replaced and a massive effort has been undergone to re-design the agency. Staff has been utilized for maximum efficiencies, units have been broken down and realigned to allow freer work flow, processes have been automated, when possible, and re-designed to alleviate man-hours needed to complete tasks. As a result, at this point in time, the costs for administering the CEP are fully integrated with the costs of administering the SEEC.

III. CONCLUSION

On December 31, 2012, the Citizens’ Election Fund balance was $15,460,859, as shown in Schedule A. Pursuant to section 9-701 of the Connecticut General Statutes, $15,460,859 was carried forward to be used for permissible purposes included in Chapter 157.

As described in this report, the balance of the CEF needs to be constantly monitored to be assured that there will be sufficient funds in it to fully fund CEP grants going forward. If such balance is projected to fall short, then legislative action must be taken to course correct. Although it is not the purpose of this report to declare the CEF sufficient for future elections, it is incumbent upon this agency as administrator of the CEP to bring attention to potential shortfalls and offer solutions. The SEEC stands ready to work with the legislature and to propose legislation that achieves this end.

IV. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The SEEC gratefully acknowledges State Comptroller Kevin Lembo for the generous assistance he and his staff provided to us throughout 2012. The cooperation of the Office of the State Comptroller and the use of Core-CT is critical to the timely distribution of grant payments to candidates who participate in the Citizens’ Election Program.

The SEEC also acknowledges State Treasurer Denise Nappier, and her capable senior staff, for their cooperation throughout the year regarding the administration of the CEF.
