Who gives the most money to the DCCC?
One entity this cycle has given the most to the DCCC.
Nancy Pelosi for Congress $5,295,000
SV Angel LLC $1,022,000
Lone Pine Capital $789,000
Granite Telecommunications $685,610
Bain Capital $634,800
Nancy Pelosi has been the largest supporter of the DCCC every election since 2014 (Nancy Pelosi tied for first that year).
If you count individuals - not PACs or businesses - the biggest provider is the grassroots movement of everyday people generating $25.7m from more than 600,000 individuals. Less than $200 at a a time, individuals gave 5X the money to the DCCC as Nancy Pelosi did. People trust the DCCC to allocate their money on their behalf to win elections, but most of their money goes to donor marketing or administrative costs rather than supporting candidates directly.
Did the DCCC give my money to Republicans?
Maybe. There is a better chance it was spent on donor marketing (SPAM texts and planet killing mailers) but it is more than a possibility that if you gave money to the DCCC they gave your money to the opposite party.
The DCCC is airing ads boosting a pro-Trump Republican in a primary against a more moderate incumbent. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is spending nearly half a million dollars to air ads boosting John Gibbs over Rep. Peter Meijer (R-Mich.), who voted to impeach Trump last year.

The DCCC’s ad calls Gibbs “too conservative for West Michigan,” links him repeatedly to Trump and trumpets his “hard line on immigrants at the border.”
“It’s very dangerous, I think, in this environment to be propping up candidates like that,” said Rep. Jason Crow (D-Colo.), who called it “a terrible idea” and said he has raised his concerns to the DCCC.
Democratic Party Super PACs have spent tens of millions of dollars this year investing their donor's money in GOP primaries to promote more extreme candidates and improve their own general-election odds.
Why do donors need a middleman in 2022?
They don't.
With the right tool you can guarantee 100% candidate receipt of your money that doesn't cost your candidate money to receive your boost! One of the DCCC's top expenses noted above is a tool that charges candidates a service fee to unlock grassroots donations. Direct to candidate options make it easy to execute a plan of your own and ensure more of your money actually makes it to the candidates.
