3. Explanation of above estimates (including long-range effect):
Using actual numbers of write-in candidates for years 2008, 2010 and 2012 and applied the 25% of the filing fee, the estimated revenue was computed. The results are below
2008 $12,650 2010 $ 1,405 2012 $19,955 |
| If the write-in filing fee would have been in place in the previous year of 2008, 2010 and 2012, the number of write-in candidates may have been lower than the number used in the estimate. |
