All data comes from the NC State Board of Elections (SBoE), which requires every candidate to file quarterly reports disclosing all money raised and spent. This tool displays those reports.

This tool covers the 2025–2026 election cycle. Data will be updated as new quarterly reports are filed.

Yes — all 170 currently serving members of the NC House and NC Senate are included. In the future we may expand coverage to include prospective candidates and others.

Some legislators don't fundraise between election years. They may have filed a report showing no activity, or certified their committee as "under threshold" (raised and spent less than $10,000 in the cycle).

Use the search bar in the navigation. You can also browse the member list, filtered by chamber or party, and sorted by any column.

Total Raised reflects all contributions received during the 2025–2026 cycle. Cash on Hand is the balance remaining in the committee's account as of the most recent filing.

The proportion of each legislator's donations that came from individuals (green), PACs and other committees (amber), and other sources such as party transfers and small aggregated contributions (blue).

The official fundraising account a candidate registers with the SBoE. All campaign money must flow through it, and all activity must be reported publicly.

Any individual or PAC may give up to $6,800 per election to a candidate. Because a primary and a general election count as separate elections, a single donor can give up to $13,600 to the same candidate in a full election cycle. Party committees (NCGOP, NCDP, etc.) are exempt from these limits. Candidates and their spouses may also contribute unlimited amounts to their own campaigns.

Under § 163-278.13, the limit increases automatically every two years. On July 1 of each even-numbered year, the SBoE recalculates the limit based on inflation, rounded to the nearest $100. The new amount takes effect January 1 of the following odd-numbered year.

A regular PAC can give money directly to candidates (up to $6,800 per election) but cannot accept corporate contributions. An Independent Expenditure PAC (IE PAC) works the other way: it can accept unlimited contributions from anyone — including corporations — but is legally prohibited from giving money directly to any candidate. It can only spend on ads, mailers, and organizing, and none of that spending can be coordinated with a campaign.

A colloquial term — not a legal one — for political spending where the original donors aren't publicly disclosed. In NC, corporations that give to IE PACs must be disclosed. But donations to certain nonprofits (like federal 501(c)(4) organizations) that then spend on elections may not require full donor disclosure, creating a gap where the true source of funding can be obscured.
