What is included
All 1,648 reporting-year 2026 occurrences in two matching official independent-expenditure downloads and the matching public API selection for the 47 observed spenders. Eight repeated safe-value occurrences are preserved. Source occurrence counts are not unique payments.
Every account count, obligation sum and included unpaid sum matches the frozen extract controls. Equality of the three extracts does not establish the latest controlling report for every account.
Published row dates range from 2026-01-22 through 2026-09-15. Source transaction dates are not report coverage cutoffs. Accounts have different filing calendars; this is not a complete election cycle.
- Two complete official CSV extracts and the API extract match every privacy-safe occurrence, not just their totals.
- All 47 account-level counts, amount sums and unpaid sums reconcile; signs and source duplicates are retained.
- Reported negative affected registration IDs are retained without inventing a candidate-profile match.
- Donation receipts, ordinary campaign expenses, loans and cash balances are not included in this release.
- The latest report and amendment chain is not verified for all 47 accounts. These source-row observations must not be represented as final or current campaign totals.
- Unitemized spending, federal spending and comprehensive local-election filings are not included.
- A name or reported contribution alone does not establish an agreement, corruption or control.
For public-interest reporting. Addresses, cities, ZIP codes, contact details, employer, occupation and free-text purposes are omitted. Public names and registration identifiers are retained as filed.
Reported contributions establish financial relationships. Evidence of an agreement or control requires additional reporting.
