Dear David:
The enclosed comments summarize the results of my
research. In North Carolina, the President clearly is not
required to file personally. In West Virginia and Massachusetts,
the research discloses that the President probably is not per-
sonally responsible. As a safety measure, you might want to
call the appropriate state officers, or, if you prefer, I will
be pleased to call them on behalf of the Committee for the
Re-election of the President.
When you require a similar evaluation of any other
state statutes, please feel free to call me. I expect to be in
town most of this week, should it be appropriate to continue
the project now.
Very truly yours,

Enclosure
WEST VIRGINIA, Chapter 3, Article 8
Regulation and Control of Elections
While Section 3-8-2 and 3-8-5 require candidates to file reports
with the Secretary of State, Section 3-8-4 permits a candidate to
designate someone to act for him by filing a written statement
with the Secretary of State 60 days prior to the election. If
such a statement is filed, it would appear that the designee-
not the candidate himself-has the obligations to make the filings
under Sections 3-8-2 and 3-8-5.
NORTH CAROLINA, Chapter 163, Article 22
Corrupt Practices
Section 163-263 requires a candidate to file an expenditure and
contribution report 10 days prior to a primary. No such require-
ment exists regarding filings prior to the general election.
MASSACHUSETTS, Title 8, Chapter 55
Disclosure of Campaign Expenditures and
Contributions
The treasurer of any politcal committee organized on behalf of the
President has the responsibility for filing a statement of receipts
and disbursements, at Section 16 (c). A clear distinction is made
in Section 17 between candidates for lesser offices (who must
file the reports themselves) and candidates for President and
Vice-President (who are covered by reports filed by committees
on their behalf).
