The number that is NOT here: Conservative Solutions PAC spent $38,954,180 electing Rubio president in 2016. Paul Singer gave it $5,000,000 — but that is 8.3% of the $60,564,219 it raised, its lead funder is Norman Braman at $7,000,000, and Braman is not a donor we track. It fails our funder test, so none of that $39M is counted. No tracked committee has ever run independent expenditures for or against Rubio; his entire figure is earmarked and direct money his campaigns accepted. Also not here: Miriam Adelson's and Paul Singer's own checks to his campaigns, about $44,000, because the ZIP and employer on those filings do not match their roster records and our matching rule does not bend for famous names.
Method
Career totals from pro-Israel PACs, compiled from Federal Election Commission filings: every dollar the 97 pro-Israel committees we track have ever put into a politician's campaigns, across every federal office they have run for and every FEC cycle on file (1980 to today). That means direct PAC checks, the earmarked checks the PACs bundle and pass through (AIPAC PAC, NORPAC, JStreetPAC), and independent expenditures (ads, mailers, organizing) made to elect them, including money the same group spent attacking their opponent in that race. Where a super PAC that is not itself a pro-Israel PAC is funded mainly by the lobby's mega-donors or by a tracked PAC, we count that spending only after a donor review, and we publish the filings on the Receipts page. Money spent AGAINST a politician is never added to their total. Full methodology and the list of tracked committees.
