RESOLVED FURTHER, That the State Board of Elections be encouraged during its review to seek once again the advice of two members of the House Committee on Privileges and Elections and two members of the Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections as may be designated by their respective chairs, one representative each from the Democratic and Republican Parties of Virginia, two treasurers representing political committees that are registered with the State Board, two general registrars, and one or more non-profit groups with an interest in Campaign Finance disclosure in Virginia.
