After the election, your campaign’s relationship with the CFB continues through the completion of your post-election audit. All campaigns are subject to a post-election audit of their reporting and recordkeeping, regardless of participation in the Campaign Finance Program.
Audit Process
The post-election audit process is completed when the CFB issues your Final Audit Report or notifies you of potential penalties and/or public funds repayment obligations. This process requires regular communication between your campaign and the CFB.
