Delaware Regulations § 100-4.0 School boards and offices paying under $1,000

4.1 No candidate for election to any school board or to any other public office that pays less than $1,000 per year shall be required to form a candidate committee if the candidate files a Certificate of Intention Form prepared by the Commissioner within 7 days of filing as a candidate and certifying (under penalty of perjury) the intention not to receive nor to spend more than $2,000 in campaign funds.

4.2 A candidate who has filed a Certificate of Intention Form shall not be required to file any further reports with the Commissioner. However, if the candidate subsequently receives more than $2,000 in contributions or spends more than $2,000 before the end of the year in which the election for such office is held, the candidate or committee must, within 7 days of such receipt or expenditure, notify the Commissioner and file all reports that would otherwise have been required had no Certificate of Intention been made.

4.3 Reimbursement for personal expenses in connection with performance of duties of the office is not salary for purposes of calculating the $1,000 limit on salaries for offices not required to report.
