Public gets online access to officials’ disclosures
North Dakota’s secretary of state must post every interest statement filed with that office on its website. The law sets no posting deadline. The secretary of state and county and city auditors must accept statements and allow public inspection and copying during regular office hours. Copying fees stay in the applicable general fund. Statements from elected or appointed officials must be kept for their term of office. Statements from candidates not elected or appointed must be kept for one year after receipt.
Candidates and officials face broader disclosure rules
North Dakota candidates must sign and file financial interest statements with their election filing officer when filing candidacy papers. Presidential and vice presidential candidates can instead file their federal personal disclosure statement in presidential election years. Candidates who filed for a primary do not need to file again before the general election. Elected write-in candidates who need no write-in certificate must file their statement with their oath of office. Governor-appointed state agency and board members must file with the secretary of state when their appointment is announced. Filing officers must keep candidates off the ballot if statement errors remain uncorrected by 64 days before the election. Covered officeholders, except federal officeholders, must file annually by January 31; late filings can bring fees under existing law. Statements must name the filer’s and spouse’s employers, principal occupations, and other businesses or trusts in which they have financial interests. They must list closely connected groups that may be affected by legislative action or the officeholder’s official duties. They must also identify business offices, directorships, and fiduciary roles held by either spouse during the prior calendar year. Filers must name state agencies, departments, and local governments that bought more than $5,000 in qualifying goods or services that year. Sales through a listed employer count when the filer or spouse owns at least 10%. Sales through another listed business or trust count with at least 10% ownership and a direct connection to the office’s duties.
