In New Hampshire, there are two primary agencies involved in statewide campaign finance regulation: the New Hampshire Secretary of State, Elections Division, and the New Hampshire Attorney General. The former is responsible for campaign finance reporting, and the latter for enforcement of campaign finance law.[1]
New Hampshire Secretary of State, Elections Division
Authority
As the state's primary elections official, the secretary of state is responsible for administering campaign finance reporting requirements in New Hampshire. New Hampshire law requires candidates, PACs, and 501(c)(4) organizations to register with and report expenditures to the secretary of state.[2]
Electronic reporting system
New Hampshire hosts an online campaign finance records system. The system can be accessed here.
New Hampshire Attorney General
Authority
Under New Hampshire election law, the attorney general has the authority to enforce campaign finance and election laws. When a complaint is brought forth, the attorney general may conduct an investigation, and, if a violation is found, demand the violator cease the action. The attorney general may prosecute the violator if sufficient cause is found in the investigation.[2]
