Between 29% and 31% of the $26,241.81 whose donor listed an address came from inside the district (House District 55) this election (since 2025).

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.

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.

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.
