Just passing through, from a Sarah and David’s family PAC.

Still working on that all important average campaign contribution number. In the wrong direction.

From out of state (what else is new?):

C151053 10/19/2016 GREITENS FOR MISSOURI Suburban Automotive Consultants Inc PO Box 909 Troy MI 48099 10/19/2016 10,000.00

The Bronx is up, but the Battery’s down. Curiously, neither is in Missouri.

Update:

Josh Hawley (r) [2016 file photo].

The October Quarterly Campaign Finance reports were due at the Missouri Ethics Commission today. From Josh Hawley’s (r) 2016 campaign for Attorney General:

C151132: Hawley For Missouri
Committee Type: Candidate
Party Affiliation: Republican
Po Box 1073
Columbia Mo 65205
Established Date: 07/23/2015
[….]
Information Reported On: 2016 – October Quarterly Report
Beginning Money on Hand $1,152,678.76
Monetary Receipts + $3,271,840.81
Monetary Expenditures – $99,871.46
Contributions Made – $1,000.00
Other Disbursements – $0.00
Subtotal $3,170,969.35
Ending Money On Hand $4,323,648.11

[emphasis added]

The contributions to Josh Hawley’s campaign from July 1 August 28 to September 30, 2016:

$2,006,250.00 of the total came in four contributions (one of them in-kind for a relatively small amount) from a single entity. Determining before Election Day who wrote the check(s) to the PAC to accumulate this amount will probably be next to impossible.

Another $1,000,000.00 of the total came from two individuals associated with TAMKO.

Does it look like there’s an agenda in here somewhere? Just asking.

$172,501.00 came from nineteen individuals or entities who contributed in amounts between $5,000.00 and $25,000.00.

$101,214.81 came from individuals who contributed in amounts between $5.00 and $3,000.00.

As far as we can determine, approximately 77% of the money contributed to Josh Hawley’s campaign from July 1 to September 30, 2016 came from out-of-state addresses. That proportion has not changed for the better for the third quarter since last year.

Today at the Missouri Ethics Commission for Jay Ashcroft’s (r) 2016 campaign for Secretary of State:

[emphasis added]

Sigh. You’d think a Washington, D.C. republican PAC would want to drop a lot of money on this race.
