Funding profile

Unweighted · never a blended score
Small-donor (grassroots) share5.1%
From the unitemized (sub-$200) total, which reconciles exactly against FEC's individual-contribution figure. Small gifts that ActBlue/WinRed itemize aren't counted here — see the size-based measure below.
Small-dollar by transaction size6.8%
Share of itemized + unitemized contributions received in individual transactions under $200 (FEC schedule_a/by_size), counting each gift by its own amount — so it captures small repeat donors the unitemized field hides. Its denominator is raw itemized receipts, so it reads conservatively.
PAC share of contributions37.8%
Committee & JFC transfer share0%
Share of receipts (excluding self-funding and loans) that arrived as transfers from joint-fundraising and other authorized committees rather than direct contributions — reported in the sending committees’ filings, never undisclosed “dark” money. This bar is the transfer component only, not the whole non-direct remainder — a determined 0% means no transfer receipts (other complement receipts such as offsets may still exist); “—” means no external receipts to decompose.
In-state contributor share86.7%
Share of itemized individual dollars from in-state donors — unitemized (<$200) contributions have no state breakdown.
Top-20 donor concentration12%
Share from the 20 largest individual donors this 2-year period, by exact name — a neutral concentration measure, approximate (recurring small-dollar donors may be undercounted), not a score.

Funding mix & position over time

Across every election cycle on record

Small-dollar share down from 15.9% (2010) to 6.8% (2026) A cycle with too little reported money to trust any ratio is left out entirely; a cycle where one specific figure can't be computed (e.g. an all-itemizing committee has no small-dollar figure to read) is left out of just that line.

Individual-donor detail

Held for the deep-table phase. v1 shows aggregate figures only — by design, not by omission.
NameCity / StateEmployerOccupationAmountDateStreet addressPhone

Statutory notice. When individual detail ships, street address and phone are never shown, and the data may not be used to solicit contributions or for any commercial purpose (52 U.S.C. §30111(a)(4)). Named individuals appear only here in the deep table — never on a shareable card — each with a match-confidence indicator.
