Campaign finance: other; definition of statewide elective office in the Michigan campaign finance act; remove reference to university boards. Amends sec. 12 of 1976 PA 388 (MCL 169.212). TIE BAR WITH: SJR J'26

This bill amends the Michigan Campaign Finance Act to clarify the definition of a "statewide elective office" for reporting purposes. Specifically, it removes references to university boards and regents from the list of offices that require campaign finance disclosures. The change ensures that only elected positions like governor, attorney general, and state legislators are included in these financial reporting requirements, while excluding university governance roles. This adjustment affects how candidates and committees must categorize and report contributions related to statewide elections under current state law.
