The latest expense and contribution reports for candidates in the party primaries were due Jan. 31.

A candidate does not have to report finances if they get a “modified” status. Modified status means the candidates do not intend to accept more than $930 in political contributions or make more than $930 in political expenditures (excluding filing fees) in connection with any future election within the election cycle.
