Jack Coleman for State Representative spent the most out of all the political committees based in cities associated with St. Joseph County during May, 2021, according to the Michigan Department of State.

The committee paid $637 to two vendors.

The largest expense was $450 paid to Hillcrest Grill based in Three Rivers for rent.

The second largest political spend from a committee operating in a city within St. Joseph County during the month came from Committee to Elect Steve Carra. It spent $200 during that period on one vendor.

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.

Governor Gretchen Whitmer outspent her opponents by a wide margin, spending nearly $600,000 more than the second-highest spending candidate.

Political campaign financial data is often updated, leading to a sometimes incomplete picture of a committee or candidate's finances.
