The committee paid $431 to three vendors.
The largest expense was $200 paid to James Asher based in Dryden for consulting.

What’s known as “dark money,” which comes from political non-profits and shell corporations, has greatly increased expenditures and donations in recent elections to record-breaking highs.
The amount raised and spent by candidates in the 2020 election cycle paled in comparison to the amounts raised in the 2016 election. Data from Transparency USA showed candidates in 2020 spent only roughly one-quarter ($136 million) of what was spent in 2016 ($445 million).
Political campaign financial data is often updated, leading to a sometimes incomplete picture of a committee or candidate's finances.
| Committee | Expenditures | Paid Vendors |
|---|---|---|
| Committee to Elect Steven Thomas | $431 | 3 |
| Committee to Elect Chad Moore | $121 | 1 |
