Where they live · this election (since 2025)

In the district 55% ($11,607.02)ZIP crosses the district line 2% ($450.00)Elsewhere in Iowa 3% ($650.00)Outside Iowa 40% ($8,349.00)

Between 55% and 57% of the $21,056.02 whose donor listed an address came from inside the district (House District 37) this election (since 2025). It's a range because donor addresses are placed by ZIP code, and some ZIP codes cross the district line.

60% came from somewhere in Iowa and 40% from outside the state.

Its filings report $25,986.02 raised in cash this election (since 2025), and $21,116.02 of that is listed donor-by-donor. The bars use the donor-by-donor part. Its newest report (filed 2026-07-20, $4,870.00 raised, for the period ending 2026-07-14) is not yet in the donor-by-donor rows we hold, so the bars stop at the report before it. · full record →

Not in the bars: $802.50 in donated goods and services this election (since 2025). The second bar also leaves out $60.00 from donors with no usable address on the filing.

Method: itemized cash contributions (Schedule A, transaction type CON) since 2025-01-01, refunds netted, the committee's own account interest excluded. Each donor is placed by the state and 5-digit ZIP code on the filing. A ZIP code counts as in the district when at least 98% of its Iowa land area (Census ZCTA) falls inside it, as crossing the line when between 2% and 98% does, and as elsewhere in Iowa otherwise. Iowa ZIP codes with no Census area (post office boxes) are shown on their own. In-kind support and loans are never in either bar.

Fundraising rate

New money raised per day of each candidate's latest report — the pace of fundraising, comparable even when reports cover spans of different length. The small bars trace how that pace moved across recent reports.

Jason Sandholdt $80/day

$4,870.00 over 61 days · latest report

Rate = money raised ÷ days the report covers. ("Money raised" is the report's cash-contribution line — Schedule A.) Faded bars are earlier reports' rates; the solid bar is the latest. State committees only. A period's total can arrive as one large check or many small gifts — the rate can't tell them apart; a committee's donation page breaks its money down by gift size.
