N.J. Admin. Code § 19:25-12.10

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 21, November 4, 2024

Section 19:25-12.10 - Allocation

(a) Where an expenditure is made on behalf of two or more candidates, the expenditure must be allocated between or among such candidates in a reasonable manner so as to fairly reflect the relative value to each of the candidates of such expenditure. The initial allocation should be made by the committee or candidates on a reasonable basis, and in advance of the expenditure where possible. All documents and financial records relating to the allocation and the expenditure should be retained:

Example: A municipal political party committee is expending $ 100.00 for the purchase of a quantity of bumper stickers containing the slogan "Vote for Candidates A and B." The committee determines that the stickers are of equal value to each of the candidates. Thus, $ 50.00 of the expenditure should be allocated to Candidate A and $ 50.00 should be allocated to Candidate B. Financial records and a record of the facts on which the allocation is based must be retained.
