Where the money comes from

Who gives to each campaign, and where those donors live, for this election (since 2025). Cash the state lists donor-by-donor.

Jill Alesch · Democrat

Who gives · this election (since 2025)

Individuals 100% ($49,024.81)

Shares are of the $49,024.81 that donors gave this election (since 2025).

Where they live · this election (since 2025)

ZIP crosses the district line 51% ($24,567.00)Elsewhere in Iowa 36% ($17,520.00)Iowa, ZIP not mapped <1% ($35.00)Outside Iowa 13% ($6,383.81)

Between 0% and 51% of the $48,505.81 whose donor listed an address came from inside the district (House District 43) this election (since 2025). It's a range because donor addresses are placed by ZIP code, and some ZIP codes cross the district line.

87% came from somewhere in Iowa and 13% from outside the state. $35.00 of the Iowa money has a ZIP code with no area on the map (a post office box, for example), so it can't be placed in or out of the district.

Its filings report $70,968.26 raised in cash this election (since 2025), and $49,024.81 of that is listed donor-by-donor. The bars use the donor-by-donor part. Its newest report (filed 2026-07-19, $21,943.45 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: $70.00 in donated goods and services this election (since 2025). The second bar also leaves out $519.00 from donors with no usable address on the filing.

Between 0% and 36% of the $10,410.00 whose donor listed an address came from inside the district (House District 43) this election (since 2025). It's a range because donor addresses are placed by ZIP code, and some ZIP codes cross the district line.

Not in the bars: $2,171.58 in donated goods and services this election (since 2025) and $24,000.00 in loans the campaign received this election (since 2025), money it owes back and often the candidate's own. The second bar also leaves out $100.00 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.

Jill Alesch $360/day

$21,943.45 over 61 days · latest report

Nicole Hasso $113/day

$6,923.07 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.
