By the state each donor wrote on the filing, across 5 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.
What the committees giving to Lave’s campaign or spending on ads about Lave are: a company or industry, a union, a cause, a party or politician. Money from individual donors is not included.

Money groups spent on their own, not through a campaign. Each ad is filed against the candidate it names, so money attacking an opponent shows on the opponent’s row. Open a candidate to see who 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, 82% to named individuals, 11% to tax-exempt organizations that need not name their donors, 6.5% not itemized in the filings.

Read for the 3 largest groups of 4, 64% of the $217.4K spent.
