“Individuals” covers both small-dollar (under $200) and large donors.
Who are the biggest donors?
Every donor ranked by how much they gave, from the candidate’s own FEC filings — individuals, PACs, and party committees all in one list. Expand a candidate to see theirs, then tap any name to learn more about the donor.
Why are so many gifts exactly $10,000? That’s the legal maximum a PAC can give one candidate for the whole cycle — $5,000 for the primary plus $5,000 for the general — so many PACs give the max. Individuals can give up to $3,500 per election.

Showing the 50 biggest of 824 donors. The other 774 gave $1.1M combined.
Plus $82K from small donors giving under $200 each — those aren’t itemized by name.
These figures come from the candidate’s own itemized FEC reports (2026 cycle, through the coverage date above), with amendments applied and refunds netted. Joint fundraising transfers are left out of the ranking: they’re pass-throughs, and the individual donations behind them are listed above. Bank interest, vendor refunds, and other non-donation receipts are excluded. Donor names are as reported — the same person can appear twice if their name was recorded differently. Independent spending on ads is never included here — see the Outside spending column.

Think Big puts another $147K into NY-25 for Morelle as its AI-network backers wobble
Think Big, the Democratic-facing arm of the Leading the Future / American Mission AI super-PAC network (treasurer: ex-Schumer aide Josh Vlasto), filed a 24-hour report on Oct 19 for $146,828 in mail and TV supporting Rep. Joseph Morelle in NY-25 via vendor Lantern Production Consultants. The network tie hardened this week: an Oct 19 read of the filings shows Leading the Future sent $22.5M each to Think Big and American Mission, while venture capitalist Ronald Conway now regrets his funding, Meta pulled back $25M of a pledged $65M, and Greg Brockman reportedly canceled a planned $25M donation. Think Big's October Monthly donor report, due tonight, had not been filed as of this evening.
