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 →

The candidate’s own money made up 17% of the campaign’s funds — individuals gave 0.8%, organizations and PACs 82%.

Candidate’s own money $15K · 17% Individuals $700 · 0.8% Organizations & PACs $71K · 82%
Why this number?

Share from the candidate compares from the candidate's own money with everything the campaign raised.

Show formula

Everything the campaign raised, split into the candidate's own money (own contributions plus self- and family loans), individuals, organizations and PACs, and everything else — loans other than the candidate's, in-kind contributions, and (for federal filers) committee transfers and other receipts. Unitemized small donations count as individual money. The parts add up to the total raised. The headline share is the candidate divided by the total.

From the candidate's own money: $15,000 ÷ Everything the campaign raised: $87,000
Inputs behind Share from the candidate
Candidate's own money (incl. self-loans) $15,000
