What is Changing Effective January 1st
Important transition note: A contribution is “made” when the candidate receives the actual payment. Example, if a Mayoral candidate receives a check for $2,000 on January 2nd, but the check is dated 12/30/2020, the new $1,000 limit applies and the candidate must return the excess $1,000 to the contributor within 72 hours of receipt.

Welcome to Denver's online campaign finance reporting system.

Campaign finance forms and reports must be filed online through the Denver Campaign Finance Online Reporting System. Campaign finance reporting in Denver is governed by Article 3, Section 15 of the Denver Revised Municipal Code.
