Where the money went Each expenditure carries a short description of what it was for, written by the campaign. We sort those descriptions into a fixed set of categories; one expenditure goes in one category, so the amounts add up to Nicky Rittenberry’s itemized spending. Descriptions that don’t clearly fit a category are counted under Other rather than guessed at.
