The committee paid $1,171 to five vendors.
The largest expense was $250 paid to Thomas Biondo based in St. Clair Shores for consulting.
The second largest political spend from a committee operating in a city within Macomb County during the month came from Brighter Michigan PAC (Super PAC). It spent $756 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.
During the 2020 elections, candidates spent roughly $41 million. This is in sharp contrast to the previous federal election cycle, when Michigan candidates spent nearly $150 million.
Political campaign financial data is often updated, leading to a sometimes incomplete picture of a committee or candidate's finances.
