Where the money comes from

$83,552.38 received across 636 itemized cash contributions since 2023-01-01, per state disclosure records. Its reports show $107,736.25 in cash raised in the same span — the $24,183.87 difference is small gifts reported as one lump sum, plus recent reports the state hasn't broken out donor-by-donor yet. Separately, and not counted above or in the mix below: $38,911.98 in in-kind support (19 filings) — goods and services donated rather than money . The cash figure also includes $23.52 in interest the campaign's own bank accounts earned ( 12 postings from First Central State Bank ) — Iowa filings report interest as a Schedule A entry under the bank's name, but it is account income, not a donation, and it is not ranked among the donors below.
