The law of the city of Weston regarding contributions to mayoral campaigns is as follows: all contributions to these campaigns in excess of $100 made by nonresidents of Weston who are not former residents of Weston must be registered with the city council. Brimley’s mayoral campaign clearly complied with this law since it accepted contributions only from residents and former residents of Weston.
If all the statements above are true, which one of the following statements must be true?
(A) No nonresident of Weston contributed in excess of $100 to Brimley’s campaign.
(B) Some contributions to Brimley’s campaign in excess of $100 were registered with the city council.
(C) No contributions to Brimley’s campaign needed to be registered with the city council.
(D) All contributions to Brimley’s campaign that were registered with the city council were in excess of $100.
(E) Brimley’s campaign did not register any contributions with the city council.

Pretty straightforward meaning, but the options are a bit tricky.
(A) No nonresident of Weston contributed in excess of $100 to Brimley’s campaign.
Let us revisit the para where non-resident are spoken of - all contributions to these campaigns in excess of $100 made by nonresidents of Weston who are not former residents of Weston must be registered with the city council
In the para, there is a limitation to the non-residents who are not former residents.
But the option, very subtly, removes this limitation. A non-resident who has been a former resident can easily give more than 100$
Eliminate this tricky option, it is a trap.
(B) Some contributions to Brimley’s campaign in excess of $100 were registered with the city council.
We cannot say what was the amount that residents and former residents of Weston contributed. It could be just possible that all were less than 100$.
(C) No contributions to Brimley’s campaign needed to be registered with the city council.
The Brimley's campaign complied with THIS law, and there was no compulsion on registering contributions of residents and former residents.
So, true.
(D) All contributions to Brimley’s campaign that were registered with the city council were in excess of $100.
Same as B above. we cannot say what was the amount that residents and former residents of Weston contributed. It could be just possible that all were less than 100$
(E) Brimley’s campaign did not register any contributions with the city council.
Looks very similar to C, but there is a difference in ' needed to register' and 'did not register'.
All contributions in a certain bracket MUST be registered. This does not mean, others cannot be registered. We do not know from Para what the Brimley's campaign exactly do.

Hello expert,
To me C and E mean the same, but just wording differently, so could you help? Thanks
