How to read this
- Figures are as filed with the Idaho Secretary of State; returned contributions are subtracted and loans are shown separately.
- Independent expenditures split across several candidates are counted once per candidate, using the amount the filer applied to each.
- Individual donors are shown by name, city and state. Full filings, including addresses, are on Sunshine.
- A committee that gives in Idaho but isn't registered here doesn't disclose its own donors in Idaho filings.
