Campaign spending: Top Q2 political donation recipients in Maryland

Campaigncheck02

These Maryland political organizations received the most money from campaign donations from April 1 to June 30, according to the Federal Election Commission.

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. The Government Accountability Office reviews current campaign finance law and makes recommendations for keeping the laws relevant.
