Values SignalData changed from the filing are tagged: “completed” where the state database cut off a final word and only one word fits (FLORI → FLORIDA), “corrected” where a word is plainly misspelled (COMPNAY → COMPANY). Hover a tag for the value as filed; the CSV keeps both. Spellings that differ only in punctuation are combined; other variants of the same contributor are not.
Where contributors are, by address
Contributions came from addresses in 30 states, the District of Columbia. Florida addresses account for 79% of the money. None came from Alaska, Delaware, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, South Dakota, Vermont, West Virginia, Wisconsin, or Wyoming. An address is where the contributor filed from; a company’s address may be a headquarters or a mailing office.
Color shows gross contributions from contributor addresses in each state. Not on the map: address redacted in the state record: $600 in 1 contribution.

What these records show, and what they don’t
- They show contributions the committee reported to the Division of Elections, from Feb. 10, 2025 through Oct. 8, 2026. Contributions received after Oct. 8, 2026 are not yet included.
- They do not show how the committee spent its money. Expenditure records have not been pulled.
- A contribution records a transfer of money. It does not show what, if anything, a contributor sought or received in return.
- Totals are gross. Refunds ($0.00) are listed separately, and interest ($7.46) is not a contribution.
- Names, occupations and addresses are as filed, with two kinds of change, each tagged where it appears: a final word the state database cut off is completed where only one word fits (FLORI becomes FLORIDA), and a plainly misspelled word is corrected (COMPNAY becomes COMPANY). Proper names are never changed. The state database cuts names at 30 characters, occupations at 20 and in-kind descriptions at 23, so some names remain incomplete. The CSV has each value as filed alongside the changed one. The database does not link one contributor’s different spellings, and a person and a company they control appear as separate contributors.
- Statement of Organization received by the Division of Elections on Feb. 7, 2025.
- The state record shows the address redacted for 1 contributors (as filed: BRANHAM MICHELLE).
