Money spent independently — not the campaign's money

Independent expenditures by Super PACs and other groups or individuals to support or oppose this candidate. Legally separate from the campaign: unlimited amounts, but no coordination with the candidate is permitted. This money never enters the campaign's accounts. Spenders marked non-committee filer reported directly on FEC Form 5 rather than as registered committees.

Support and oppose totals are shown separately on purpose — money spent against a candidate is not the same as money spent for their opponent, and BallotLedger does not net them.

Classification, plainly: the green section is money the campaign received and controls. The amber section is money outside groups spent on their own. BallotLedger never adds the two together.
