Webp campaign11

These were the political organizations that received the most money in campaign donations in Montana from January 1 to March 31, 2019.

Donations made to political groups or candidates must be disclosed under state law for greater transparency in elections. While Congress created the Federal Election Commission to oversee federal elections in 1974, each state is left to regulate its local elections.
