The filing.
Time range
Adds up every report whose period starts in the range, as the committee reported it on its DR-2 filings; a report the state lists with only a year counts under January of that year, and the sentence says how many there are. Cash on hand is never added up: it is the closing figure of the most recently filed report in the range, named in the sentence. The money-raised bars and the filing history below follow the range; the cash-on-hand line always shows every report.
10 reports in the range Jul 2023 – Jul 2026: raised $419,118.68, spent $347,372.13, in-kind $1,705.63, as reported. Cash on hand at the end of the most recently filed of them (2026 · Jul 15 – Oct 14, filed 2026-10-16): $71,746.55.

Time range
Adds up the itemized rows we hold whose date falls in the range: cash given to this committee, and payments it made, as listed donor-by-donor and payee-by-payee in the state's files. These are itemized figures, a different basis from the reported totals above, and the state's itemized files run behind its filings (see the notes below). The ranked lists of givers and payees below cover since 2023, whatever range is chosen.
Money in, itemized cash dated Dec 2023 – Oct 2026: $419,118.68. From individuals $404,118.68, from organizations $0.00, from other committees $15,000.00. Cash only: in-kind support and loans received are not counted here. These figures are net of $3,500.00 in refunds and corrections, filed as negative rows.
Money out, itemized payments dated Dec 2023 – Oct 2026: $347,372.13. To vendors and people $339,622.13, to other committees $7,750.00. Loan repayments are not counted here. These figures are net of $750.00 in refunds and corrections, filed as negative rows.
Where the money comes from
$419,118.68 received across 354 itemized cash
contributions since 2023-01-01, per state disclosure
records (the rows we hold reach 2026-10-20: the publisher's extract, dated 2026-07-14, plus the Ethics Board's public search, read 2026-10-19).
Separately, and not counted above or in the mix below: $1,705.63 in in-kind
support (14 filings) —
goods and services donated rather than money
.
Where these donors live, of the $419,113.68 whose donor listed an address: In Iowa 87% ($366,413.68) · Outside Iowa 13% ($52,700.00).

across 352 gifts, not to scale
$404,118.68
$21,574.00 of the individuals' money is from recent rows read
from the Ethics Board's public search, which does not say whether a giver
is a person or an organization. We count a giver there as an individual
unless the state's older records list the same name as an organization
or the name is plainly one (a PAC, party, committee, business, trust or
union).
Where it goes
$7,750.00 in cash given to other
committees this term (since 2023), as itemized in this committee's own spending reports. Recipients' filings also report $36,234.51 in
donated goods and services from it — staff, mail, polling and the
like — which is support, not a check and is the larger share of what it gives.

Cross-check: the committees that received this money itemized $1,500.00 of it on their own filings over the
same window. The two sides are filed by different committees
and can differ in timing and itemization — county, local and
federal recipients also file outside this dataset.
