With just two days left until the election, here’s a side-by-side comparison of the largest financial contributors to regional candidates. In some cases, the largest donors are the actual candidates themselves using loans or reporting “in kind” work toward their campaigns. But you can scroll through these spread sheets to see which other people and organizations gave the most to Whitman County and state legislative candidates.
All of this information comes from the state’s Public Disclosure Commission where you can also dig into candidate spending, campaign ethics complaints and lobbying expenses. You can also take a look at fundraising for the U.S. Senate race and the U.S. House Dist. 5 race at the Federal Election Commission.
