Candidates for state office in Vermont are required to report to the Secretary of State's Office how much they raise and spend on their campaigns — as well as where the money is coming from and where it’s going. VTDigger has analyzed that data and presented it here in a way we hope will best inform readers.

Donor types
15% of statewide candidate contributions came in the form of donations of $100 or less. Campaigns are not required to identify the source of such small donations.
Candidates can contribute to their own campaign ("Self") or accept donations from family members ("Family"). Previous campaigns or shuttered campaigns can also contribute to a person's campaign and are listed as "Candidates."
Political Action Committees, or PACs, and businesses are two types of organizations that can make contributions to candidates. PACs must also register with the state and must abide by contribution caps. Super PACS, on the other hand, can spend unlimited sums in support or opposition to candidates but cannot coordinate with them.
