By the state each donor wrote on the filing, across 56 states and territories. Donors who have given $200 or less this cycle are not itemized, so they cannot be placed on a map. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total.

| Written instead of an employer · 4,696 contributions · 49% of ranked | $1,727,152 |

A further $126,817 came from donors whose answer names no employer (N/A, blank), so it is not ranked. Ranked from the largest 200 of 201 employer spellings filed; each share is of the money in those. Itemized gifts over $200, grouped by the words donors filed: not an industry classification, and a gift from an employee is not a gift from the employer. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total. Gifts of $200 or less ($3,291,426) are not itemized, so no employer or occupation is filed for them.
Money groups spent on their own, not through a campaign. Each ad is filed against the candidate it names, so money attacking an opponent shows on the opponent’s row. Open a candidate to see who spent it.
The campaign also refunded $280,598 in contributions, which the categories below do not include.
Total itemized disbursements $8,791,506

All 2,015 itemized payments filed this cycle. Spending below the itemization threshold is not filed line by line.
13 payments were reported as a lump sum, such as a card or payroll bill, with the detail filed underneath as memo entries. Those entries, $29,646 in all, are counted under the payee and purpose they name rather than under the processor that was paid. The total is the same either way.
