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, 34% to named individuals, 30% to organizations, 20% to tax-exempt organizations that need not name their donors, 6.7% to committees nothing more could be followed from, 10% not itemized in the filings.

Read for the 20 largest groups of 151, 92% of the $334.9M 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.
