Jack O'Malley for State Representative spent the most out of all the political committees based in cities associated with Benzie County during July, 2021, according to the Michigan Department of State.

The committee paid $1,173 to six vendors.

The largest expense was $100 paid to Governor's Room based in Lake Ann for room rent.

The second largest political spend from a committee operating in a city within Benzie County during the month came from Fighting for Michigan Fund. It spent $1,125 during that period on two 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.

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.
