        68A.602  FUND CREATED.
         The "Iowa election campaign fund" is created within the office
      of the treasurer of state.  The fund shall consist of funds paid by
      persons as provided in section 68A.601.  The treasurer of state shall
      maintain within the fund a separate account for each political party
      as defined in section 43.2.  The director of revenue shall remit
      funds collected as provided in section 68A.601 to the treasurer of
      state who shall deposit such funds in the appropriate account within
      the Iowa election campaign fund.  All contributions directed to the
      Iowa election campaign fund by taxpayers who do not designate any one
      political party to receive their contributions shall be divided by
      the director of revenue equally among each account currently
      maintained in the fund.  However, at any time when more than two
      accounts are being maintained within the fund, contributions to the
      fund by taxpayers who do not designate any one political party to
      receive their contributions shall be divided among the accounts in
      the same proportion as the number of registered voters declaring
      affiliation with each political party for which an account is
      maintained bears to the total number of registered voters who have
      declared an affiliation with a political party.  Any interest income
      received by the treasurer of state from investment of moneys
      deposited in the fund shall be deposited in the Iowa election
      campaign fund.  Such funds shall be subject to payment to the
      chairperson of the specified political party as authorized by the
      director of revenue on warrants issued by the director of the
      department of administrative services in the manner provided by
      section 68A.605.
