Issue Committee and PAC Forms
All non-candidate committees require the same documentation to open a committee: a statement of organization and a treasurer affidavit.
A template for the statement of organization can be found within each committee’s account in the committee information section within SearchLight Denver.
The treasurer affidavit can be found in each committee’s account in your committee information section within SearchLight Denver. It must be filled out online, printed out, notarized by a registered notary, and mailed back or delivered to the Denver Elections Division at 200 W. 14th Ave Denver, CO 80204. Committees are encouraged to drop off the treasurer affidavit in person to ensure it is received in the 10-day window.
