As of 3:30 PM today, 23 candidates in the 2013 citywide elections have filed required campaign finance disclosure statements with the Campaign Finance Board (CFB). All candidates in the general elections for city office are required to file disclosure statements by midnight, October 4.

Outside groups or individuals that have spent $1,000 or more supporting or opposing a general election candidate or ballot proposal must also disclose their spending by the same deadline. Groups that have spent $5,000 or more supporting or opposing a candidate or ballot proposal must also disclose their contributors.

The following candidates and independent spenders have filed the required disclosure statements. Updated, detailed information for these candidates can be found on the CFB website’s financial summary page and in the searchable online database.

All candidates participating in the public matching funds program must file disclosures by close of business on Friday, October 4, to be eligible for the first General Election public funds payments scheduled for Thursday, October 10.

The CFB will post updates to its Twitter feed, @NYCCFB, as filings are received. You can easily search for updates with the hashtag #FilingDay.
