Who funds it
79% from donors giving $200 or less · 21% from donors giving over $200 · largest donor Cher Yamasaki, $5.3K. See who funds it
Where it goes
$35K spent for candidates and $58.8K against them, most on AZ-07 ($35K) · $84.6K given to candidates and committees, the largest to Randy Villegas ($8.5K) · 100% of its support to Democrats. See where it goes
Its wordsWhat does this committee say it is for?
Why this committee exists In its own words
“Youth Save Democracy is committed to innovative and data-driven campaign strategies to maximize youth voter participation and electoral impact. We deploy strategic tactics including:”
Quoted from the committee's site, or its sponsor's or funder's where its own says nothing. Any side it takes is in its own words.
No published list of positions
Its site sums up what it stands for in the statement above, and publishes no list of positions beyond it.
Who it gives to
Which candidates and committees get its money?
Each part reads different filings, so counts and totals can differ.
Party support distribution$102.3K to 16 candidates
Direct PAC contributions and independent expenditures explicitly reported as support, by the party of the candidate they went to.
For candidates $102,300
Democratic 100%
Against candidates $58,759
Republican 68%Other or unresolved 27%
Spending against candidates is drawn on its own bar and left out of the support totals.
Contributions are reported money, not endorsements; a PAC giving to both parties is common.
Who this PAC gave to$84,550 in 20 payments
Every contribution on line 23 of the committee’s own Schedule B, which is the filing its summary totals are built from. That line covers federal candidates, party committees and other political committees alike, so a super PAC funding other super PACs appears here rather than under candidate giving.

Money moving between this committee and other committees, matched on FEC committee ID rather than the name each filing was typed under. Both sides exclude memo entries. The figures here count each committee once, from the itemized transfers read for this section, so they will not match the payment counts under Who this PAC gave to.

Each committee that gave is followed to where its own money came from, in proportion to what it received: a committee that got half its money from one person is counted as passing half of what it gave on to that person. Each channel shows the committee the money came through and its place in the money tree. It shows who stood behind the money, not what that money was for, and an organization that need not name its donors ends the trail. It stops at a person, an organization, a committee with nothing on file here, or 3committees deep. A person who gave by more than one route appears under each, a name filed two ways may appear twice, and a person's job and city are as they filed them. "Also behind" counts the other groups, among those that moved $100,000 or more into races, in which $100,000 or more traces to the same person, other than those this money came through or went on to.

By the state each contributor wrote on the filing. The FEC aggregates every Schedule A line together, so one committee or organization transfer can account for a whole state. Contributors who have given $200 or less this cycle are not itemized and 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.
