Where the money comes from

$125,809.21 received across 1,058 itemized cash contributions since 2023-01-01, per state disclosure records. Its reports show $236,159.82 in cash raised in the same span — the $110,350.61 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: $17,498.25 in in-kind support (9 filings) — goods and services donated rather than money . The cash figure also includes $7.20 in interest the campaign's own bank accounts earned ( 6 postings from MidWestOne Bank and 1 more institution ) — 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.

Effectively all of it: individuals, $125,802.01.

Where the money went

$62,150.89 in 159 payments to 36 different recipients since 2023, as this committee itemized them. Itemized payments run through 2026-05-26. 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.
