OHIO LEADS

Ohio in the title and Columbus on the statement of organization

OHIO LEADS is the FEC name field. The address of record is Columbus, Ohio. Name-state and address-state match here. That still does not prove independent expenditures were limited to Ohio races. Independent-expenditure-only Super PACs report federal activity. They can file independent expenditures in any federal contest the committee chooses.

Committee ID C00788851 is the stable key when Ohio and Leads collide in the PAC directory. Kim Ledesma as treasurer identifies the filing. It does not assign a party and does not locate every dollar in Franklin County.

LobbyVault indexes FEC Form 3X committee totals. This page does not pull Ohio state campaign-finance reports. If a researcher needs state-level filings, those live at the state agency, not in this packet.

Matched $3,794,485 in receipts and disbursements

Receipts and disbursements both print as $3,794,485.00. That 100% spend-through is a Form 3X pairing. Equal lines are not a bank-account statement. The packet does not label cash on hand, loans, or refunds.

Leads in the name does not prove the $3.79 million was independent expenditures. Form 3X disbursement totals mix operating costs and IE activity until schedules are opened on FEC.gov for C00788851.
