Citizens Clean Elections Commission members are responsible for implementing the Clean Elections Act, enforcing its provisions, creating commission rules for candidates to abide by, and attending monthly meetings.
The Clean Elections Act, passed in 1998, established that commission members be appointed to five-year terms by the top statewide office holder of alternating political parties, beginning with the governor. Under state law, no more than two members may be of the same party or residents of the same county.
