GEORGIA HONOR — $60.8 million in FEC Super PAC totals

Receipts and disbursements that nearly match

GEORGIA HONOR's receipt total is $60,815,076.42. Its disbursement total is $60,819,199.33. Disbursements exceed receipts by $4,122.91 in these aggregates — a rounding-scale gap next to $60.8 million. The two lines move together. That pattern is unusual among Super PACs that show large unspent receipt totals, and it is still only a filing comparison.

Matching inflows and outflows does not prove the committee is closed, debt-free, or finished spending. Form 3X aggregates can align because of how reporting periods roll up. The packet does not include cash on hand, loans, or debts. Read the $60.8 million pair as two FEC totals that happen to sit on top of each other.

Cite the packet facts in this order: $60,815,076.42 received, $60,819,199.33 disbursed, $0 individual, treasurer Rebecca Lambe, Washington, D.C., committee C00763193. Zero individual contributions is the category fact. Near-equal $60.8 million totals is the flow fact. Georgia in the name and D.C. on the form is the geography fact.

A $0 individual line means the $60,815,076.42 arrived in other FEC receipt categories. This packet does not name those counterparties. Independent-expenditure-only status means Super PAC Form 3X, not a Georgia state filing and not a candidate campaign. Honor is branding. LobbyVault does not grade it. The $4,122.91 gap is not a balance sheet.

The $0 individual-contribution line

Individual contributions are $0. Every dollar of the $60,815,076.42 receipt total is therefore in other FEC receipt categories — transfers, other committees, or other coded lines that this packet does not enumerate. That is the opposite of Super PACs whose receipt lines are almost all individual.

A zero individual line is not a finding that no person ever wrote a check that later moved through another committee. It is a finding about how FEC contribution categories aggregate on this committee. Donor stories that assume small-dollar individuals funding GEORGIA HONOR are not supported by this packet.

Georgia in the name, Washington, D.C., on the form

The committee name is GEORGIA HONOR. The city and state of record are Washington, D.C. Treasurer of record is Rebecca Lambe. Committee ID is C00763193. A geographic word in a Super PAC name does not bind independent expenditures to that state's ballot. Federal IE filings can name contests in Georgia or elsewhere; this packet does not list those contests.

Name geography is branding on the statement of organization. Filing geography is the city/state field. Both are facts. Neither is a map of vendors.

Independent-expenditure-only, not a state party account

GEORGIA HONOR is flagged as a Super PAC: independent-expenditure-only, type O where flagged. It is not a candidate's authorized committee and not, on these facts, a state party committee filing. The $60,815,076.42 and $60,819,199.33 figures are Form 3X committee aggregates.

LobbyVault does not treat the word honor as a grade. Public records describe what C00763193 reported. They do not describe what voters in Georgia or any other state should do.

How to use the GEORGIA HONOR overlay

Open the committee page for C00763193 for the tables under this prose. Use the Super PAC tracker to compare other independent-expenditure-only committees, including those with large individual lines that this committee lacks. Use the PAC directory when matching similar names. The distinctive facts here are the near-equal $60.8 million totals and the $0 individual contribution aggregate.

Zero individual dollars changes how to read the $60.8 million

GEORGIA HONOR's $0 individual-contribution line means the $60,815,076.42 in receipts is entirely in other FEC receipt categories. Transfers and other committee lines are the usual suspects; this packet does not name counterparties. Stories that assume small-dollar individuals funded this Super PAC are not supported here.

Receipts of $60,815,076.42 and disbursements of $60,819,199.33 sit $4,122.91 apart. Near-equal totals can reflect reporting-period roll-ups. They do not prove the committee is terminated. Cash, loans, and debts are not in this packet. Confirm those lines on FEC.gov for C00763193.

Rebecca Lambe as treasurer and Washington, D.C., as the address of record sit next to a committee name that includes Georgia. Name geography and filing geography disagree. Neither field lists independent-expenditure targets. Independent-expenditure-only status is the Super PAC flag.

Do not mix these Form 3X totals with Georgia state campaign-finance filings or with a candidate's Form 3. Use the GEORGIA HONOR committee page, the Super PAC tracker, and the PAC directory. LobbyVault does not grade honor. No voting advice follows.
