A donor who gave several times appears once. The 12 largest donors by total given are listed. In all, 3,177 itemized contributions were filed this cycle, totaling $75.7K.

Each loan as the campaign’s report through Oct 14, 2026 lists it, with what is still owed. A loan from an earlier cycle can appear here, and one repaid in full drops off the report, so the list need not add up to the row.

Every dollar the committee reported receiving this cycle, split by the source the FEC filing attributes it to. FEC filings through Oct 14, 2026.

Who stands behind the outside spending: the people and organizations its money traces to
Who stands behind the outside spending $439.5K traced back through the groups that spent it
Each group that spent in this race is followed to where its own money came from, and what it spent is split by those shares: a group whose money was 60% one person's counts as 60% of its spending theirs. Of what traced, 12% to named individuals, 73% to organizations, 11% to tax-exempt organizations that need not name their donors, 1.9% to committees nothing more could be followed from, 2% not itemized in the filings.

By the state each donor wrote on the filing, across 53 states and territories. Donors who have given $200 or less this cycle are not itemized, so they cannot be placed on a map. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total.

A further $25 came from donors whose answer names no employer (None), so it is not ranked. Ranked from the largest 200 of 201 employer spellings filed; each share is of the money in those. Itemized gifts over $200, grouped by the words donors filed: not an industry classification, and a gift from an employee is not a gift from the employer.

Support and oppose are each group’s own labels, not a judgment made here.
$439,461 of the race total was filed about other candidates, so it would not show on McKay’s own record.
Independent expenditures (Schedule E) only. Electioneering communications and corporate or union member communications file separately; they are counted for McKayunder “Other outside spending” in the full finance detail, but not for the rest of the field, so every other row is a floor.

Read for all 6 groups that spent. Shares are of what each group received, not a record of which dollar went where; an organization that need not name its donors ends the trail; a person who gave by more than one route is counted once here. It shows who stood behind the money, not what it was for.
