This page is built from itemized Schedule A (contributions received) records filed by Montana candidates and committees with the Commissioner of Political Practices via the CERS system at cers-ext.mt.gov/CampaignTracker/public.
"Top contributors from Kalispell" aggregates by donor name across every filed contribution where the donor self-reported a Montana address in this city. "Candidates who received the most money from Kalispell" joins the same contributions to the candidate who received them — so amounts reflect only itemized records, not aggregate/unitemized totals.
Donor party affiliation is not captured on COPP filings. Recipient party is captured when the candidate reports it on registration; where it's missing, we show "—". We will treat an upcoming feed from COPP as authoritative once available.

Party filter applies to recipients, not donors. Party affiliation is attached to candidate records where the Commissioner has captured it; the filter falls back to "no party on record" otherwise.
