I am curious as to how you keep expenditure for the referendum separate from expenditure for the election. I would imagine that in British Columbia, as in the federal context, you set a maximum amount that each political party can spend and a maximum amount that each candidate for each riding can spend. But what do you do when a referendum is held at the same time as the election? Do you keep separate accounts? In normal circumstances, it is fairly straightforward.
