Why the identifier matters

Names alone are not enough

  1. Start with the ballot entryThe printed candidate and office define the research target.
  2. Verify the reporting accountA public committee, filer, candidate, or organization ID is stronger than a name-only match.
  3. Keep ledgers separateState reports and FEC summaries use different fields, periods, and definitions.
  4. Leave gaps visibleUnavailable, paper-only, and uncertain records never become zero.
National view: Compare publication coverage across all 50 states. Dollar totals are not combined when reporting periods or field definitions differ.
