Earlier finance history, outside-spending targets and district guides

Reconcile older filing archives and amendment parents before claiming full-cycle money coverage. Congressional, education board, university regent, legislative, RTD, district judicial, county and local candidate guides remain outside this release.

Dataset comparison: Candidate cards preserve their official source fields and reporting windows. The transaction explorer is a separate filing-year view, not all 2026 activity or a full election cycle. Signed corrections, returns, loans and noncash support stay in separate ledgers. State releases have different source coverage; missing data is not zero.
