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

The committee paid $3,681 to four vendors.

The largest expense was $100 paid to Rouch World LLC based in Three Rivers for rental of chairs.

The second largest political spend from a committee operating in a city within St. Joseph County during the month came from Jerry Solis for State Representative. It spent $492 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.

The amount raised and spent by candidates in the 2020 election cycle paled in comparison to the amounts raised in the 2016 election. Data from Transparency USA showed candidates in 2020 spent only roughly one-quarter ($136 million) of what was spent in 2016 ($445 million).

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