(3) Goods or Services Received on Credit - are those that are obtained for a campaign from a person or business where credit is extended in the ordinary course of the business and the terms are substantially similar to the extension of credit to nonpolitical debtors. ''Goods or services received on credit'' do not include in-kind contributions.
(4) Investment Accounts - are accounts such as savings, mutual funds and certificates of deposits (CDs) into which campaign funds may be held for investment purposes.
(5) Political Campaign Committee - includes a multicandidate political campaign committee, single-candidate political campaign committee and single-measure political campaign committee, unless reference is made to a specific type of political campaign committee.
(6) Single-Measure Political Campaign Committee is a committee which is receiving or expending funds to support or oppose a proposal(s) submitted to the people of the entire state or any political subdivision for approval or rejection at an election. For purposes of these rules, an organization or committee that is receiving or expending funds to support or defeat an issue that is being considered by the General Assembly or by a city or county legislative body that is not yet a proposal submitted to the people for approval or rejection at an election is not a single measure political campaign committee.
