Education of candidates, committee officers, and the general public is a
high priority within the Campaign Disclosure Division of the Board of Elections.
Publications serve an important role in this education process for the general public.
The entire text of the Campaign Disclosure Act and the rules governing the law are available in
the
Campaign Disclosure Act and Rules and Regulations.
The Guide to Campaign
Disclosure gives an overview of the Act, complete with examples and explanations
in language that is helpful and understandable.
To further assist in
understanding terminology, look at the
Glossary of Common Campaign Disclosure
Terms.

process, see

list of acronyms, abbreviations, initials and common names of Illinois
political action committees.
