Questions you can investigate
- What cash contributions appear for a campaign, separating reviewed public matching?
- How are positive individual gift amounts distributed?
Coverage and dates
Current records held in the published ledger; provisional, not complete ORESTAR history.
- 2025-01-01/2026-11-04
Public files retrieved 2026-11-06. Verification checks the package; it does not refresh the observations.
What this cannot establish
- Coverage is provisional; late filings, removals or amendments may be missing.
- Records and provisional identity groups are not verified unique people.
- Public matching, private cash, loans, payments and other accounting bases must stay separate.
Unsupported: How many verified unique people donated?
Join without double counting
- transactions.transaction_id → reviewed_matching_ids.transaction_id: at most one match; use membership or a left join, preserving unmatched transactions.
- Use the published candidate crosswalk; a filing committee name alone does not establish a candidate/race link.
