Money the donor list doesn't show

$194,116 from small-dollar donors. Contributions under a $200 running total are not itemized, so federal law does not require their names to be disclosed at all.

Outside spending

Spent by outside groups, not given to the campaign. By law these groups cannot coordinate with the candidate — money spent against an opponent still helps, and a candidate has no say over it.
