CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION LIMITS
In 1994, the voters of Folsom approved Measure V, which enacted Folsom Municipal Code Chapter 2.48 – Campaign Contribution Limits. Measure V, in part, imposed a $150 campaign contribution limit. Measure V acknowledged that, inherent to the high cost of election campaigning is the problem of improper influence, real or potential, exercised by campaign contributions over elected officials. It was the purpose and intent of the people of the city in enacting Measure V to preserve an orderly political forum in which individuals may express themselves effectively; to place realistic and enforceable limits on the amounts of money that may be contributed to political campaigns in municipal elections; to limit contributions by organizations in order to develop a broader base of political efficacy within the community; to limit the use of loans and credit in the financing of municipal election campaigns; and to provide full and fair enforcement of all the provisions of the established campaign contribution limits.
REGISTERING TO VOTE
REMEMBER: If you have moved, changed your name or party affiliation, you must re-register to vote.
The Constitution of the United States guarantees the right to vote to all citizens who are 18 years of age and not imprisoned or on parole for the conviction of a felony. Registration is the first step in exercising this constitutional right. In California, registration is permanent and a new affidavit of registration need only be executed if you have changed your name, address or wish to change your party affiliation.
In California, the deadline to register to vote for an election is 15 days before each local and statewide Election Day, so please register early. Persons may continue to register after the cut-off period, but cannot vote in the upcoming election.Voters may register with the Sacramento County Voter Registration Department.
The actual registration procedure takes only a few minutes of your time and is accomplished by completing and mailing a postage paid voter registration card. The card is addressed to the Sacramento County Voter Registration and Elections office.
Voter registration postcard forms are available at the City Clerk's office at City Hall, 50 Natoma Street, or call (916) 355-7270.
The California Secretary of State's web page has additional information regarding voter registration.
