About HowTheyGet

HowTheyGet is a free, nonpartisan campaign finance research tool. We compile official federal campaign finance records and present them clearly so anyone can follow the money without digging through government databases.

What we show

Total fundraising, spending, cash on hand, PAC contributions, individual donor breakdown by employer, and spending by purpose — all from official federal records for the 2024 election cycle.

What we don't do

• We don't score, rate, or editorialize candidates based on their donors or spending.
• We don't require accounts or registration.
• We don't store your searches or sell your data.
• We don't run ads.
