The Campaign Spending Commission has prepared this guidebook to assist candidates who choose to participate in the public financing of their campaigns.
Every effort is made to detail the requirements and answer most questions.
For further reference, candidates should refer to the Hawaii Revised Statutes, Chapter 11, Part XII, Subpart B, and Hawaii Administrative Rules, Title 2, Chapter 14, Campaign Spending Rules. Candidates are also encouraged to seek assistance through the Commission staff by requesting advisory letters for specific questions.
