The Colorado secretary of state adopted new campaign finance rules today in response to a federal court ruling issued last week.
Judge Raymond Moore struck down provisions of state law allowing private citizens to file complaints. Until the ruling, all complaints received a hearing without review for merit.
New enforcement mechanisms provide for initial review of complaints and an opportunity to cure violations prior to investigation and enforcement.
Substantive requirements of state campaign finance law were not affected.
