CONCORD N.H.- Gov. Kelly Ayotte has signed a bill into law that will allow political donors the opportunity to contribute more money to New Hampshire political candidates while remaining anonymous.
Senate Bill 405 also raises the total contribution cap for an anonymous donor to $200 per election cycle.
Under the new law, if an individual, political committee, corporation, or other organization donates $200 or less to one candidate’s political committee, the donor’s name must not be added to the contribution list on the candidate’s campaign finance reports.
If the donation is more than $200, the donor’s name must be included.
The law, which takes effect Aug. 18, effectively raises the total anonymous contribution limit from its limit in previous elections of $150.
