Monday night was the last chance for New York State Campaign Finance filers to get their disclosure reports in to the State Board of Elections (SBOE) and the NY political blogosphere has been abuzz with all kinds of details regarding the new disclosure info. Here is some more info to help reporters, activists, and other curious parties navigate the tricky waters of the New York State campaign finance system.
The files below have been updated based on JUL06 data file that was posted by the SBOE on their website at about 6:00PM yesterday. While it certainly doesn't contain ALL of the filers yet--people can be late and amendments can be filed--it is the most current data available.
There are three different sets of data:
Overall Summary: this lists all of the available committees that have filed and is ranked by the most cash on hand. Click here to download (430KB MS Excel file)
Gubernatorial Data: This is an analysis when, how and from whom campaign dollars have been raised and spent in this period by they 3 remaining gubernatorial candidates (Faso, Spitzer and Suozzi). There are two downloads available:
Attorney General Data:Same as the gubernatorial data but for AG candidates (please note that Charlie King's data was not available at 6:00PM yesterday and is therefore not included):
Once again, please note that all of the standard caveats and disclaimers apply to this and all NYS BOE data.
