Section 1.50. Non-candidate committees collecting on behalf of a specific candidate and the voluntary oath.

  When a non-candidate committee accepts contributions on behalf of a specific candidate, it must file the voluntary oath in s. 11.06 (7) , Stats., by which the committee's independence of the candidate is affirmed. A political action committee whose campaign finance reports show support of only one candidate is presumed to be accepting contributions in support of that candidate and required to file the voluntary oath in s. 11.06 (7) , Stats., by which the committee's independence of the candidate is affirmed. That presumption may be overcome by countervailing evidence.
