(2) For a general-purpose committee that elected to
file monthly at the time it filed its campaign treasurer appointment,
the period covered by the first monthly report depends on the day
of the month that the campaign treasurer was appointed.

treasurer appointment before the 25th of the month, the first report
will cover a period that begins on the day the appointment was filed
and ends on the 25th day of the same month.
