Who paid for Mississippi's federal races, where political donations from Mississippi went, and what those committees did with the money. Built from the Federal Election Commission's public records, with links to the FEC's own pages so you can check any figure.
The committees that received the most from Mississippi donors in , at home and across the country. Select one to see what it is, who else funded it, and where it sent money next.
The House, Senate, and presidential campaigns with the most Mississippi donors. A line joins two campaigns when the same Mississippi donors gave to both. It shows overlap in supporters, not coordination between campaigns.
Donors report their employer when they give more than $200. This table adds up gifts by the people who work at each organization. It isn't money from the employer itself: companies can't give directly to federal candidates. Only employers with at least five donors appear.

Federal campaigns, parties, and PACs file reports with the Federal Election Commission. They must name anyone who gives them more than $200 in an election cycle. Those named gifts are called itemized, and they are what this map is built on.
Gifts of $200 or less usually appear only as a lump sum, with no name or home state. The exception is online giving: ActBlue and WinRed list every gift they process, even a $3 one, so small online donations are included here. When this map says "Mississippi donors," it means donors with a Mississippi address who appear by name in these records. Small gifts by check or cash aren't counted.
If you open a committee on FEC.gov and look at its contributions from Mississippi, the total won't always match ours. When we checked the largest committees for Vermont one by one, the difference came from three things:
Neither number is wrong; they answer slightly different questions. Totals on the "Mississippi's races" tab come directly from FEC.gov.
