Yesterday at the Missouri Ethics Commission:

C180492 12/27/2019 MO Opportunity PAC Rex A Sinquefield 244 Bent Walnut Lane Westphalia MO 65085 Retired Retired 12/27/2019 $250,000.00

[emphasis added]

That’s a total of $750,000.00 in three contributions from one individual to MO Opportuniy PAC in 2019.

August A Busch III contributed a total of $100,000.00 to MO Opportuniy PAC in two installments in 2019. CL PAC contributed a total of $50,000.00 to MO Opportuniy PAC in two installments in 2019. Herzog Contracting (St. Joseph) contributed $100,000.00 in 2019.

That’s a lot of money. That’s not all of it.

After a PAC acquires all that money they spend it. On candidates.
