2023 Cambridge City Council Campaign Funding Sources (lots of outside money)!

In the chart above we see data on the percentages of outside of  campaign donations that have come from both within and outside of Cambridge through November 3.  Source: Cambridge Civic:  http://www.rwinters.com/
The higher the number means the more Cambridge-exclusive funding each candidate received. Generally speaking new candidates for office have a higher percentage of outside donors (family and friends), but that did not happen this year and CCC which has the greatest number of new candidates also has the smallest percentage of funds coming in from outside of Cambridge.

Again this year the CCC-IE Pac donations are 100% local Cambridge sources.

Note this year we did not calculate developer funds because Cambridge Civic did not include that category. They did include union funds (see the link above) and because CCC supports unions we chose not to address those funding sources, however a sizable proportion of these come from the building trades.
 
CCC is highlighted in orange. The full names of the other groups are indicated below.
