2014 NCFEF Independent Expenditure Tracker

Embed Size (px)

DESCRIPTION

The amount of money being spent by outside groups seeking to influence the outcome of elections up and down the ballot is growing. As this spending by outside groups at the state and congressional level continues to increase, keep tabs on the rising totals with the NCFEF Independent Expenditure Tracker. Due to variations of reporting requirements at the state and federal levels, spending in congressional races is tracked close to real-time, but spending in state legislative races can only be compiled after the election.
