SMP — $115.7 million in FEC Super PAC receipts

The $115.7 million receipt line

Committee C00484642 shows $115,673,596.17 in total receipts. That is the Form 3X receipt aggregate LobbyVault indexed from FEC.gov. SMP is a Super PAC, so the money sits on a committee report, not on a candidate's authorized campaign report. Readers searching for "SMP Super PAC spending" often want a single spend number; receipts and disbursements are separate lines, and this packet keeps them separate.

One hundred fifteen million dollars in reported receipts is a scale marker. It does not identify races, vendors, or message. The PAC directory and Super PAC tracker exist so C00484642 can be compared with other independent-expenditure-only committees on the same FEC basis rather than on news headlines.

Cite the packet facts in this order: $115,673,596.17 received, $50,039,617.68 disbursed, $94,376,070.28 individual, treasurer Rebecca Lambe, Washington, D.C., committee C00484642. About 43.3% spend-through is a middle outflow. About 81.6% individual share leaves $21,297,525.89 in other receipt types. SMP is a short name; the C-number is the match key.

Independent-expenditure-only status means Super PAC Form 3X, not a Senate campaign account. Rebecca Lambe as treasurer identifies the filing. It does not merge C00484642 with other committees that share a treasurer string. Keep $115,673,596.17 labeled as committee receipts. The $50.0 million disbursement bucket is not split into ads versus overhead in this packet.

Disbursements just over $50.0 million

SMP reported $50,039,617.68 in total disbursements, about 43.3% of receipts. The committee has therefore reported spending a large block of what it reported raising, while the two totals are not equal. Equality is not required. Reporting periods, refunds, and transfers all affect the relationship between the two aggregates.

Nothing in this packet splits the $50,039,617.68 into independent expenditures versus overhead. If a news story attributes a specific ad buy to SMP, that claim has to be checked against FEC independent-expenditure filings, not against this summary paragraph. LobbyVault's overlay on the committee page is the place to start that check.

Individual contributions of $94.4 million

The individual-contribution aggregate is $94,376,070.28, about 81.6% of the $115,673,596.17 receipt total. Most of SMP's reported inflows are therefore classified as individual under FEC contribution categories. Super PAC rules permit contributions above the limits that apply to candidate committees; the percentage is a category mix, not a small-dollar claim.

Names, occupations, and employer fields are not in this packet. They belong on itemized schedules when disclosure thresholds are met. Citing $94.4 million as individual money is a statement about FEC coding, not about the identity of any giver.

Washington, D.C., filing identity

SMP's city and state of record are Washington, D.C. The treasurer of record is Rebecca Lambe. The committee ID C00484642 is the string to use when matching FEC bulk files, LobbyVault committee pages, and outside databases. Short names like SMP collide in search; the C-number does not.

Independent-expenditure-only (type O, where flagged) is the Super PAC classification. That flag is why this guide lives under the Super PAC kind rather than a candidate or party-committee kind. It is a filing type, not a political endorsement.

Using the SMP totals with the rest of LobbyVault

Read $115,673,596.17, $50,039,617.68, and $94,376,070.28 as three FEC aggregates for one Super PAC. Then open the SMP committee page for the tables, the Super PAC tracker for peers, and the PAC directory if you are matching a similar name. Do not treat the committee name as a platform or as voting advice. Public records first; interpretation stays with the reader.

Short names, long C-numbers

SMP as a search string collides. C00484642 does not. Rebecca Lambe as treasurer and Washington, D.C., as the city of record are the other identity fields. Cite all four — name, ID, treasurer, city — when matching SMP against the PAC directory. Independent-expenditure-only status keeps these totals off of candidate Form 3 ledgers.

The $50,039,617.68 disbursement total is about 43.3% of $115,673,596.17 in receipts. That ratio describes two Form 3X aggregates. It does not describe how much of the $50.0 million was independent expenditures. Schedule detail lives on FEC.gov and on the committee overlay.

Individual contributions of $94,376,070.28 leave $21,297,525.89 of receipts in other categories. SMP is not a 99% individual clone. The mixed remainder is a filing fact, not a motive. LobbyVault does not treat the letters SMP as a Senate campaign account.

Public records describe what C00484642 reported. They do not describe what any voter should do. Open the SMP committee page for the tables, the Super PAC tracker for peers, and the PAC directory for name matching.

Who is SMP's treasurer?

Rebecca Lambe is the treasurer of record. The committee's city and state of record are Washington, D.C. Treasurer is an FEC filing role on the statement of organization and subsequent reports, not a LobbyVault editorial title.

Is SMP the same as a Senate campaign account?

No. SMP is flagged as an independent-expenditure-only Super PAC. Candidate campaigns file different forms. Super PAC receipts and disbursements are committee totals and must not be added into a candidate's Form 3 figures without checking the FEC form type.
