***The data presented in these statistical summaries do not include some reports filed on paper. To minimize COVID-19 exposure, the Commission closed its office headquarters in 

mid-March 2020 and suspended processing of reports submitted on paper until the agency resumes normal operations. Financial activity of paper filers will be accounted for in the 

first statistical release after the reopening of the agency’s office. (Approximately 94 percent of reports submitted to the Commission are filed electronically. Electronic filing is 

mandatory for all filers who receive contributions or make expenditures that exceed $50,000 in a calendar year, or have reason to expect to do so.) 

**The Political Action Committee (PAC) total excludes amounts for Independent Expenditure-Only Political Committees (Super PACs) and Political Committees with NonContribution Accounts (Hybrid PACs) because these committee types are represented in this table as separate line items.

*This table displays the sums of itemized independent expenditure disbursements as disclosed by committees and filers in independent expenditure reports. Some of the 

independent expenditures will not reach the $200 threshold for itemization and as a result, the total of independent expenditures displayed in this table will be less than the total in 

Table 1, which sums independent expendiures by overall summary amounts.
