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

Tracked candidates reported receiving $13,750 from this committee — $1,000 more than its own filings itemize ($12,750), because their receipt filings posted ahead of the committee’s covering report or span more cycles than its loaded filings.
