Receipts that equal individual contributions exactly
The receipt total and the individual-contribution total are the same number: $30,695,000.00. In this aggregate, 100% of reported inflows are coded as individual. That is a cleaner category match than Super PACs with mixed receipt types. It still does not name donors or prove that every gift was the same size.
A round $30,695,000 can be one transfer-coded individual line or many. Itemized schedules, not this packet, answer that. Super PAC rules allow large individual contributions, so a 100% individual share is a coding fact, not a small-dollar claim.
Cite the packet facts in this order: $30,695,000.00 received, $11,553,276.40 disbursed, $30,695,000.00 individual, treasurer Charles Gantt, Beverly, Massachusetts, committee C00855924. Receipts equal individual contributions exactly. Spend-through is about 37.6%. Round-dollar aggregates still need itemized schedules to name donors.
Beverly and Charles Gantt appear on other Super PAC packets. Merge nothing. C00855924 keeps its own Form 3X totals. Independent-expenditure-only status means federal Super PAC filings. Massachusetts as the address of record is not a spending map. Conservative is a name word, not a LobbyVault score.
Disbursements of $11.6 million, about 37.6% of receipts
Total disbursements are $11,553,276.40. Against $30,695,000.00 in receipts, that is about 37.6% spend-through. CONSERVATIVE AMERICANS PAC has reported raising far more than it has reported spending in these aggregates. The packet does not label the difference as cash on hand.
The $11.6 million disbursement bucket is not split into independent expenditures versus overhead. Readers who need ad-level detail must use FEC IE filings and the committee page for C00855924.
Form 3X is the report family behind CONSERVATIVE AMERICANS PAC's $30,695,000.00 receipt total and $11,553,276.40 disbursement total. Those two lines produce about 37.6% spend-through on committee C00855924. Individual contributions of $30,695,000.00 are about 100.0% of receipts. Treasurer Charles Gantt and the Beverly, MA, address of record identify the Super PAC on FEC.gov. Independent-expenditure-only status means these figures are not a candidate's Form 3 campaign report. They are not cash on hand. They are not an endorsement. Open the committee overlay for the tables, the Super PAC tracker for other type-O committees, and the PAC directory when the name collides. Stay inside those three links.
Beverly, Massachusetts, and the treasurer field
City and state of record are Beverly, Massachusetts. Treasurer of record is Charles Gantt. Committee ID is C00855924. Beverly appears as the address of record for more than one Super PAC in this packet set; each still has its own C-number and its own totals. Do not merge C00855924 with another committee because the treasurer string matches.
Massachusetts as the filing location does not confine independent expenditures to Massachusetts races. Super PAC reports are federal.
