Each loan as the campaign’s report through Sep 30, 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.
PACs and other committeesPolitical action committees and other candidates' committees. Corporations and unions cannot give directly.$2,0000.5%
The 3 largest committees by total given are listed. In all, 3 committee contributions were filed this cycle, totaling $6K. Counted from the givers' own filings, which can run above the total the campaign itself reports.
Total reported receipts $383,828
Every dollar the committee reported receiving this cycle, split by the source the FEC filing attributes it to. FEC filings through Sep 30, 2026.

Who stands behind the outside spending $2.5M 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, 49% to named individuals, 25% to organizations, 15% to tax-exempt organizations that need not name their donors, 0.9% to committees nothing more could be followed from, 9.3% not itemized in the filings.

By the state each donor wrote on the filing, across 36 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 $1,000 came from donors whose answer names no employer (blank), so it is not ranked. 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. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total.

Support and oppose are each group’s own labels, not a judgment made here.
$2,517,339 of the race total was filed about other candidates, so it would not show on Lancaster’s own record.
Independent expenditures (Schedule E) only. Electioneering communications and corporate or union member communications file separately; they are counted for Lancasterunder “Other outside spending” in the full finance detail, but not for the rest of the field, so every other row is a floor.

Every itemized payment the committee reported this cycle, sorted by what it said each one was for. The categories are ours; the wording they are matched against is the committee’s own. Open a category to read the filed descriptions and who was paid. FEC filings through Sep 30, 2026.
All 280 itemized payments filed this cycle. Spending below the itemization threshold is not filed line by line.
16 payments were reported as a lump sum, such as a card or payroll bill, with the detail filed underneath as memo entries. Those entries, $67,782 in all, are counted under the payee and purpose they name rather than under the processor that was paid. The total is the same either way.
