-Require all campaign expenditures be filed with the State Elections Commission before the election. -Limit campaign expenditures to 10 cents per potential voter in statewide races. -Shorten political campaigns, thereby reducing the cost, by setting primary elections in early September, rather than in June or July. -Permit voter registration by mail and provide for more flexible use of the absentee ballot.
