Candidate committees
Candidates raise money to run for office through their campaign committees. The committees must identify large donors who give $100 or more. In the tables below, we exclude small donors whose contributions total less than $100 and any transfers from a candidate’s previous campaign committee for a different race. Contribution limits vary by office and type of donor.
- Large donors
- Small donors
- Self-funded
- Funding gap

Outside spending
Separate from candidate committees, outside groups can pay for ads, mailers and other efforts to influence voters. They can't coordinate that spending with candidate committees. There is no limit on how much they can spend.
