b. i, and ii only

Step-by-step explanation:

Soft money is the term for lightly regulated money transactions and financial campaigns. It presents the financial donation which was given to the party, but not for the direct promotion of a certain political candidate. Other than that, the reason for the user can be any that will result in raising the votes.

One of the characteristics of soft money is that it is unregulated and without many restrictions. It is different from the hard money, given for the direct promotion and advertising of the candidate.
