Where the outside money came from
For the biggest spenders, the money is followed upstream while a single donor supplied at least half of it. From FEC receipts.
- Innovation Ohio PAC ← $357K from Ohio Education Association (59% of its reported receipts) No donor disclosure
- Fund for a Stronger Ohio ← $250K from Larry Connor (95% of its reported receipts)
- Fund for a Working Congress ← $80K from Duty, Honor, Courage (100% of its reported receipts)
The Gap
These totals come from the 24 and 48 hour notices outside groups must file before ads run. They are the disclosed floor. Spending by groups that do not file independent expenditure notices, such as issue ads paid for by 501(c)(4) groups, does not appear here.
