Independent Spending (and Candidates’ Receipts) in the Senate Elections of 2020

This table shows independent expenditures (IEs) for the general election in every U.S. Senate race in the country. The numbers appear in two sets of columns: one for the most recent seven days and the other for cumulative spending. IEs in support of a candidate, as well as that spent against an opponent, are both being counted here within the favored candidate’s total.

IE reports are filed with and made available by the Federal Election Commission (FEC) on a daily basis. Just above the upper left corner of the chart, we show the most recent date included.

For perspective we also show how much the candidates have raised for their own campaign committees. The candidates’ receipts may be significantly out of date – especially in the weeks between Labor Day and October 15, when the candidates file their reports for the period through September 30.

In our default setting, the table shows all of the races ranked from high to low based on the cumulative IEs on both sides of the race over the most recent seven days. However, the user may select any column for sorting. Clicking once will sort from low to high. Clicking a second time will sort from high to low.

Clicking on the state and district in the first column brings the user to a detailed page for the specific race. That page will show each of the organizations involved in a race, separating its cumulative expenditures in support of or opposed to each of the candidates. Drilling down further by clicking on the organization will bring the user to each of the individual expenditures.
