| 7 | campaigns for judicial office by entities not affiliated | ||||||
| 8 | with a candidate; | ||||||

| 10 | a committee of a political party to promote a candidate | ||||||
| 11 | for judicial office; | ||||||
| 12 | (6) jurisprudence concerning campaign finance and | ||||||
| 13 | public financing of political campaigns, both for judicial | ||||||
| 14 | office and generally; and | ||||||
| 15 | (7) any other factors that the Task Force determines | ||||||

| 17 | State. | ||||||
| 18 | The Task Force shall also suggest changes to current law | ||||||
| 19 | that would be necessary to facilitate public financing of | ||||||
| 20 | candidates for judicial office. | ||||||
| 21 | (c) The Task Force shall complete its study no later than | ||||||
