If I’m self funding my campaign do I need to open up a separate account for campaign expenses?

Yes, a campaign account in the name of the candidate or the candidate’s election campaign is opened at a financial institution for the purposes of the election campaign at the time of nomination or as soon as possible after the total amount of contributions first exceeds $1000 in the aggregate.
