The Honorable Thomas V. Mike Miller, Jr.
President of the Senate
State House
Annapolis MD 21401

Dear Mr. President:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today vetoed Senate Bill 750.

This bill specifies that all campaign finance reports required to be filed before November 1, 2000 with the State Board of Elections must be submitted on a diskette and that campaign finance reports required to be filed in November 2000 and thereafter may use any electronic medium approved by the State Board.

House Bill 976, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on May 13, 1999, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign Senate Bill 750.

Sincerely,
Parris N. Glendening
Governor
