No outside group on file for this side yet.
Raised, spent and cash on hand are from each candidate's latest report, so they lag. Each outside group shows two reads of its money side by side: what the stations' public files and the ad platforms show, and what the group itself reported to the FEC. The FEC figure is often higher, because it includes money paid ahead for later weeks and media no public file shows, such as streaming. The side's total counts each group once, at the larger of the two. An outside group is counted for the side it helps, whether its ads praise one candidate or attack the other.

All of this advertiser's measured money is digital ($26,166); 25% of that audience is under 35 and 35% is 55 or older.
No broadcast flight here carries a readable schedule, so the figures above are the digital buying alone. Digital is Meta’s own reported delivery where the ad carries it (46% of the digital money), and the platform’s reachable Kansas audience otherwise. Media are blended by money; a digital dollar buys more impressions than a broadcast one, so the blend understates the young rather than overstating them. The method and its sources ↗
Nothing on file with a flight in the window.
