Who funds this campaign The sources split breaks down the receipts the headline adds up, by the lines of each report behind it; its parts add up to the headline. Open its “Why this number?” for each report’s lines. Gift-size and location figures cover itemized contributions only. Aggregates count everyone who gave, including donors below the $200 disclosure floor — a share across all donors identifies no one. Full definition →

Loans
$450,000.00 in loan balances shown. $0.00 was borrowed in this campaign; $450,000.00 was carried into these filings from an earlier period. Later reports can repeat an outstanding loan, so each reconstructed lender balance is counted once below.
| Lender | Type | Received | Balance shown | Repaid | Outstanding |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Self (Chuck Fleischmann) | Candidate loan | — | $450,000.00 | $450,000.00 | $0.00 |
Loans
| Lender | Amount | Date Received | Outstanding | Repaid |
|---|
Of the $450,000 lent, $0 was borrowed during the filings shown here. The other $450,000 was drawn before them and is still listed because it has not been fully repaid — so it counts as debt this campaign owes, not as money it raised.
Each loan shows its balance as of the candidate's most recent filing; repayments since then appear when the next report is filed.
