Receipts of $85,231,716.47 and disbursements of $83,771,112.48 sit close together in this cycle cell. Closeness is not proof the books are closed, and it is not a cash-on-hand figure. Correlation is not causation. A large receipt total does not prove an electoral result, and it does not prove that receipts funded federal awards.

Type S and the Super PAC flag

FEC committee type S is a one-letter code. Here it means RICK SCOTT FOR FLORIDA is a Senate candidate committee (FEC type S). The packet Super PAC flag is 0. Those two fields can diverge: type O is the independent-expenditure-only code, while the Super PAC flag is a separate packet boolean. Cite both as stored.

This page is not a gubernatorial account, a Super PAC, or a named-donor page. Mixing this committee’s 2018 receipts with another committee’s independent expenditures would blend rows. Mixing them with USAspending awards would blend statutes.
