Itemized gifts from individuals: $2,168,229. From PACs and other political committees: $1,111,829.

What James E. Risch's campaign committee reported to the Federal Election Commission for the current two-year cycle (FEC candidate S8ID00092). Campaigns report quarterly, so these totals trail by up to three months. Small gifts under $200 are not itemized, so individual giving is larger than the itemized figure. See the full filings at the FEC.
