Keep cash contributions, in-kind support, other receipts, cash spending, and line-of-credit spending separate. Other receipts include loans and refunds, not only donations. These row sums do not establish a cash balance or a unique statewide flow of money.
Which states appear in reported receipt rows?
Color intensity shows each state's share of positive cash-contribution row sums. Select a state to inspect its records. In-kind support and other receipts are separate ledgers. Geography uses only the reported state field, never an address or exact location.
State boundaries: U.S. Census Bureau, 2025 Cartographic Boundary Files, States 20M. Official boundary source. Puerto Rico and source labels that do not match a mapped state remain in the exact contributor-state table below, but are not drawn on this 50-state and District of Columbia map.

What is included
All 178,643 records supplied in the four official Alabama FCPA annual 2026 archives, separated into five ledgers. The records cover 956 candidate committees and 248 PACs. Observed transaction dates end September 30, 2026.
The official archives are labeled October 1, 2026 at 2:34 a.m.; the source does not specify a timezone. Live portal records can be newer. These figures reproduce that nightly snapshot, not a continuous live feed or the full 2025-2026 election cycle.
Published row dates range from 2026-01-01 through 2026-09-30. Dates are transaction dates, not the filing year. Forty-six source records lack a filing date; those dates remain unavailable.
- All five ledgers pass unique-ID, exact-cent total, and file-checksum checks. The separately supplied in-kind file is verified against the combined contribution export and included only once.
- Amended markers, signed negative adjustments, and reported zero amounts are preserved. The amendment marker does not mean a record should be discarded.
- The account directory uses public committee IDs, not name-only matches or the portal's separate internal record IDs.
- The source exports contain some embedded newlines. Strict record boundaries and field-count checks resolved every record in this snapshot; malformed future rows must stop a refresh.
- This release is not all historical Alabama political spending, every federal FEC disclosure, or an independently verified count of every registered committee.
- Some source rows aggregate unitemized transactions. A row count is not necessarily a count of individual donors or payments.
- Independent-advertising candidate targets and support-or-oppose classifications are not supplied in these exports. No zero-dollar claim is made for those missing views.
- Do not subtract expenses from contributions to infer cash on hand. Opening balances, other receipts, in-kind activity, credit, and timing matter.
Public names are shown as filed. Addresses, exact locations, contact details, employer and occupation fields are omitted. A shared name alone does not establish a shared identity.
Reported contributions establish financial relationships. Evidence of an agreement or control requires additional reporting.
