A political expenditure that is made by the principal political committee of the state executive committee or a county executive committee of a political party for a generic get-out-the-vote campaign or to create and distribute a written list of two or more candidates is not considered a contribution to a judicial candidate who benefits from the get-out-the-vote campaign or is included in the written list and is not subject to the limits of Section 253.155 or 253.157 if the get-out-the-vote campaign or written list: (1) identifies the party's candidates by name and office sought, office held, or photograph; (2) does not include any reference to the judicial philosophy or positions on issues of the party's judicial candidates; and (3) is not broadcast, cablecast, published in a newspaper or magazine, or placed on a billboard.
