Jim Walsh

Why some contributors are not named. Private individuals are not named on this site unless their own public conduct — holding or seeking office, running an agency, or testifying to the legislature — already makes them a public figure. Their giving is shown here aggregated by the employer they stated. The full itemised record is public at the PDC.

1 of 16 listed contributors stated an employer. The field is filled in by the donor, and a blank means only that it was left blank. It doubles as an occupation box, so “retired” and “self-employed” appear in it too and are not a shared workplace.

Money spent about this candidate by others

Independent expenditures and electioneering communications — money spent about this candidate by committees that are barred by law from coordinating with the campaign. It is not the candidate’s money and is not in the figures above. Spending for a candidate is not money from the candidate, and spending for and against are two facts, shown as two figures.

No independent expenditure or electioneering communication in the PDC feed names this candidate. That is what the feed held when the record was last read. It is not a finding that none was made: C-6 reports are filed within days of the spending, and the record is re-read on a schedule.

What this page will not compute

A candidate page is where a reader expects a verdict about the person. Each of these is a verdict the filings do not support.

No prediction.: Money is not a forecast. The better-funded candidate frequently loses, and this page shows who paid for a campaign, not who will win.
No net money.: Spending for and spending against a candidate are two facts. Subtracting one from the other manufactures a third that nobody reported.
No donor we cannot name by rule.: A private individual is named only when their own public conduct clears them; everyone else is aggregated by employer. The rule is applied at sync and again at render, and no page relaxes it.
No connected-records section.: A candidate is not a node in the entity graph. Their money is on their committee’s filings, which is where the record lives; this page is a reading of those filings, not a second record.
No record of office.: What someone says while running and how they vote once serving are separate questions on separate pages. Where this person also holds office, the methodology links their record.

Where this page comes from

Every figure above is read from a primary source and rebuilt on a schedule. Nothing here is modelled or inferred; where a source is silent the page says so rather than filling the gap.

A filing, not a live balance: campaigns report on a schedule and amend afterwards. The figures are what had been filed when we last read the record (2026-09-12), and the PDC is authoritative where it disagrees.
Identity: the PDC filer id (WALSJW 520) — the one identifier the state issues a campaign. Two candidates sharing a name are two filer ids and two pages.
Money: C-3 contributions and C-4 expenditures reported by the campaign, 2026 cycle. Contributors are named only where the donor-naming rule clears them; the rest are aggregated by employer.
Outside money: C-6 independent expenditures and electioneering communications naming the candidate, by the spender’s filed stance. For and against are never netted.
Not a record of office: what someone says while running and how they vote once serving are separate questions on separate pages.
