Who funds this campaign The sources split breaks down everything the campaign raised: the candidate’s own money (including self-loans), individuals (including unitemized small gifts), organizations and PACs, and “other” (in-kind contributions, loans other than the candidate’s, and the like) — open its “Why this number?” for the full breakdown. 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 →

17% of this campaign’s individual contributions came as small unitemized donations — gifts under the federal itemization threshold (about $200 a cycle) that the filer reports only as a lump sum, never broken out by donor. The gift-size and location breakdowns below cover the itemized 83%.

Itemized $1.0M · 83% Small unitemized gifts $208K · 17%
Why this number?

The money a filer reported as an unitemized lump sum — small individual gifts that never cross the federal ~$200 cycle itemization threshold, so they are disclosed only as a total, never by donor — divided by all individual contributions (itemized plus that lump sum). Both figures come straight from the filer's own report summaries. The gift-size and geography figures on this page cover the itemized portion only; this share is the part they cannot break down.

Unitemized small donations (filer-stated lump sum): $208,370 ÷ All individual contributions: $1,224,615
Inputs behind Share of individual money that is small unitemized gifts
Itemized individual contributions $1,016,245
Unitemized small donations $208,370

Individuals gave 27% of the itemized money; organizations and PACs gave 16%, and 54% arrived as transfers from other committees; other sources made up 1%.

Individuals (itemized) $4.8M · 27% Organizations & PACs $2.9M · 16% Small unitemized gifts $220K · 1% Transfers from other committees $9.8M · 54% Other sources $228K · 1%
Why this number?

Everything the campaign raised, split into the candidate's own money (own contributions plus self- and family loans), itemized individuals, unitemized small donations, organizations and PACs, transfers from other committees (FEC line 12), and everything else (loans other than the candidate's, in-kind, offsets and other receipts). The parts add up to the total raised. The headline share is individuals divided by the total.

We sort those descriptions into a fixed set of categories; one expenditure goes in one category, so the amounts add up to Marsha Blackburn’s itemized spending.
