Where the money went

$580,947.27 in 281 payments to 33 different recipients since 2023, as this committee itemized them. A further $2,000.00 repaid loans — money going back, not spent on the campaign. Itemized payments run through 2025-12-31. Its Spent column below is the full reported figure; where that is larger, the difference is spending the state's itemized file does not carry — most recently because the newest reports have not reached it yet.
