468 The following Fiscal Impact Statement and Bill Analysis are prepared for the benefit of the members of the General Assembly, solely for purposes of information, summarization and explanation and do not represent the intent of the General Assembly or either chamber thereof for any purpose.
In general, fiscal impacts are based upon a variety of informational sources, including the analyst’s professional knowledge.
Whenever applicable, agency data is consulted as part of the analysis, however final products do not necessarily reflect an assessment from any specific department.
OFA Fiscal Note State Impact:
Agency Affected Fund-Effect FY 25 $ FY 26 $ Resources of the Citizens' CEF - Potential See Below See Below Election Fund Cost Note:
CEF=Citizens' Election Fund Municipal Impact:
None Explanation The bill expands the number of candidates who previously received a Citizens' Election Program (CEP) grant to be eligible for an additional grant if they are participating in a court ordered or adjourned primary 1 and results in a potential cost to the Citizens' Election Fund.
This cost depends upon the number of court ordered or adjourned primaries and the number of grant recipients participating.
The Out Years The annualized ongoing fiscal impact identified above would continue into the future subject to CEP grant adjustments and the number of candidates receiving grants due to court ordered or adjourned primaries.
Grants for court adjourned or ordered primaries are set at $250,000 for Governor;
$75,000 for Lieutenant Governor and Constitutional Offices;
$5,000 for State Representative;
and $15,000 for State Senator.

468 OLR Bill Analysis sSB 263 AN ACT CONCERNING CITIZENS' ELECTION PROGRAM GRANTS FOR COURT-ORDERED PRIMARIES AND ELECTIONS AND FUNDING.
SUMMARY This bill allows candidates participating in the Citizens’ Election Program (CEP) to receive a grant from the program for a new election or primary ordered by a court or for adjourned elections and primaries (i.e., contests that result in a tie and for which the subsequent primary or election is held three weeks later between the tied candidates).
To qualify, the candidate must appear on the ballot for the new or adjourned contest and have previously received a CEP grant for the original contest.
Currently, adjourned election and primary grants are available only for participating legislative candidates.
The bill also clarifies that any funds deposited into the Citizens’ Election Fund (CEF) based on a determination by the State Elections Enforcement Commission (SEEC) in advance of a gubernatorial election (1) are in addition to any deposits the law otherwise requires and (2) do not affect the amount deposited in other years.
EFFECTIVE DATE:
July 1, 2024, except that the CEF provision is effective on July 1, 2025.
§§ 1 & 2 — CEP GRANTS FOR COURT-ORDERED AND ADJOURNED ELECTIONS AND PRIMARIES The CEP is the state’s voluntary public financing program available to candidates for legislative and statewide office.
For each office, the table below lists the contests for which a CEP grant may be awarded under the bill for court-ordered and adjourned elections and primaries as well as the base grant amount.
The bill requires that these base sSB263 / File No.

468 amounts be adjusted for inflation under the same schedule as other CEP grant amounts (i.e., following changes in the consumer price index for all urban consumers (CPI-U) as published by the U.S.
Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics).
Under existing law, adjourned primary grants for legislators are available only to qualified major party candidates, while adjourned election grants are available to qualified major party, minor party, and petitioning candidates.
The bill applies these same requirements to the new and adjourned election and primary grants it authorizes.
Additionally, like legislative candidates under existing law, an adjourned primary winner under the bill must have his or her general election grant reduced by the amount of any unused portion of the adjourned primary grant (CGS § 9-705(h)(2)).

468 the CEF.
The CEF is funded mostly by proceeds from the state’s sale of abandoned property that escheats (reverts) to it.
Existing law requires that unclaimed property funds be annually credited to the CEF in an amount equalto what wasdepositedin thepreviousfiscalyear adjusted for inflation by the state treasurer using the CPI-U (e.g., the deposit was $12.6 million in FY 22).
Beginning in FY 26, the law requires that in any fiscal year before the fiscal year of a gubernatorial election, funds be deposited in an amount deemed necessary to pay grants to CEP candidates in the election cycle for which that election is to be held.
This amount must be based on SEEC’s required report on this matter.
(In each state election year, SEEC must determine whether the CEF has enough money to pay grants to CEP candidates.) The bill clarifies that any deposit ahead of a gubernatorial election based on SEEC’s report is in addition to the regular deposit.
It likewise clarifies that any SEEC-determined deposit is not considered when determining the amount of the subsequent year’s deposit of unclaimed property funds.
