Quarterly fundraising reports for federal candidates, covering the period from July 1 to Sept. 30, were due at the Federal Elections Commission on Saturday night. Below is our list of fundraising numbers for House candidates in all key 2016 races, largely following the list of contests that Daily Kos Elections has rated as competitive. All numbers are in thousands. The chart, and an explanation of each column, can be found below.
Note: PA-09 candidate Art Halvorson is a Republican who won the Democratic primary as a write-in.
- "CD" stands for congressional district.
- "Raised" is the amount the candidate has received in donations from donors during the quarter, not including any self-funding or loans.
- "Self Fund" is the amount of direct contributions a candidate has made to his or her own campaign. This number, if any, is not counted in the "Raised" column.
- "Self Loan" is the amount of any loans a candidate has made to his or her own campaign. This number, if any, is not counted in the "Raised" column.
- "Raised CTD" indicates how much a candidate has raised for the election cycle-to-date as of the end of the quarter. This figure does not include self-funding or loans.
- "Spent" is the amount of money the campaign has spent during the quarter.
- "CoH" stands for total cash-on-hand the campaign has available at the end of the quarter.
You can access our spreadsheet directly here. If you click through, you'll see two additional columns on the right-hand side:
- "Self Fund CTD" is the amount of direct contributions a candidate has made to his or her own campaign for the election cycle-to-date. This number, if any, is not counted in the "Raised CTD" column.
- "Transfers" is the amount of monetary transfers from other political committees.
Ultimately, all money received from all sources (including transfers) is reflected in every candidate's cash-on-hand totals, less spending. You can also find our earlier roundup for both the first and second quarters of 2016 here.
