Raised
$15,435

Raised counts contributions from individuals, businesses, PACs, and party committees, including small contributions of $200 or less that North Dakota reports as lump sums; the candidate's own money and reimbursements are not included, and the size chart covers itemized individual contributions only. North Dakota requires a donor's occupation only when an individual gives $5,000 or more in a reporting period, and never for judicial candidates, so the occupation chart shows filed occupations only and appears only when they cover at least 20% of itemized individual money. North Dakota candidates report spending only on the year-end statement, so spending is unavailable until then rather than zero.

Direct contributions by size
  • $500-$999$700

Spending by outside groups

Outside groups, such as PACs and super PACs, spend this money on the race. The candidate's campaign does not spend it, and none of it goes to the candidate.

Outside spending counts independent expenditures that registered North Dakota committees reported for or against this candidate, using the stance each filing states; a total of zero means no such filing names the candidate yet. The groups' own funders are not shown yet.

Outside groups spent $16,857 to support this candidate.
