† Reported in this PAC’s own disbursement filing; the recipient’s receipt filing hasn’t itemized it yet.

Tracked candidates reported receiving $67,000 from this committee — $2,500 more than its own filings itemize ($64,500), because their receipt filings posted ahead of the committee’s covering report or span more cycles than its loaded filings.
