Where each candidate's money comes from
Small donors give $200 or less; PACs are political action committees. Shares of each candidate's own receipts on file with the FEC. Outside money is not part of these figures.
Matt Day itemizes every gift, so small donors are counted from the FEC's breakdown of contributions by size: gifts of $200 and under.
