The committee paid $5,000 to House Republican Campaign Committee for dues.

The largest expense was $5,000 paid to House Republican Campaign Committee based in Brighton for dues.

The second largest political spend from a committee operating in a city within Livingston County during the month came from Bob Bezotte for State Representative. It spent $3,902 during that period on four different vendors.

What’s known as “dark money,” which comes from political non-profits and shell corporations, has greatly increased expenditures and donations in recent elections to record-breaking highs.

Governor Gretchen Whitmer outspent her opponents by a wide margin, spending nearly $600,000 more than the second-highest spending candidate.

Political campaign financial data is often updated, leading to a sometimes incomplete picture of a committee or candidate's finances.
