THINK BIG — $10.5 million in FEC Super PAC receipts

A $500,000 individual line on a $10.5 million committee

THINK BIG's individual contributions of $500,000 are about 4.8% of $10,508,008.58. The other $10,008,008.58 of inflows sits in FEC receipt categories this packet does not name. That mix is the filing fact that sets THINK BIG apart from Super PACs whose individual line nearly equals receipts.

Four-point-eight percent individual is still a Super PAC category mix, not a donor list and not a claim that the committee is small. Receipts are $10,508,008.58. Super PAC rules allow large individual gifts and other lawful receipt types. Itemized schedules, where required, are on FEC.gov for C00923417.

Think and big are common search words. Committee ID C00923417 is the match key in the PAC directory. This packet does not merge C00923417 with any similarly named nonprofit or slogan PAC.

Disbursements of $7.2 million, about 68.6% of receipts

Total disbursements are $7,205,188.17. That is about 68.6% of receipts. THINK BIG has reported spending a clear majority of reported inflows while leaving a gap the packet does not label as cash on hand. Timing, loans, and refunds can all move those lines.

Big in the committee name does not prove the $7,205,188.17 was independent expenditures. Form 3X disbursement totals mix operating costs and IE activity until you open the schedules.

Reno address and treasurer of record

THINK BIG is registered with a Reno, Nevada, city and state of record. The treasurer is Josh Vlasto. Committee ID C00923417 is the stable key. Nevada as the address of record is not a statement that the committee's spending is limited to Nevada races. Super PAC independent expenditures can be reported in any federal contest the committee chooses to file on.

Treasurer names appear because FEC statements of organization require one. Citing Josh Vlasto identifies the filing, not a biography.

What THINK BIG is not, on these facts

This guide is not an endorsement, not a donor ranking, and not a prediction. It restates three FEC aggregates — $10,508,008.58 received, $7,205,188.17 disbursed, $500,000 in individual contributions — plus the Super PAC flag, city, and treasurer. These totals are not a candidate's Form 3 campaign report.

How to read the overlay

Open the THINK BIG committee page for the tables. Use the Super PAC tracker to compare type-O committees with a small individual share rather than a 99% individual coding. Use the PAC directory when the two-word name collides. Keep Form 3X off of candidate ledgers.

Other receipts dominate the $10.5 million pile

About 68.6% spend-through is a middle-to-high ratio: not the near-100% empty-the-register pattern, not the single-digit spend-through pattern. The packet still does not split ads from overhead inside the $7,205,188.17. Individual contributions of $500,000 leave $10,008,008.58 of receipts in other FEC categories. That leftover is unnamed here.

Do not fold $10,508,008.58 into a candidate's authorized-committee receipts. Form 3X stays on the Super PAC side. Cite treasurer Josh Vlasto, Reno, Nevada, and C00923417 with the three dollar totals. Use the THINK BIG committee page, the Super PAC tracker, and the PAC directory. LobbyVault does not endorse the committee.

Form 3X is the report family behind THINK BIG's $10,508,008.58 receipt total and $7,205,188.17 disbursement total. Those two lines produce about 68.6% spend-through on committee C00923417. Individual contributions of $500,000 are about 4.8% of receipts, leaving $10,008,008.58 in unnamed FEC categories. Treasurer Josh Vlasto and the Reno, Nevada, 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.

Think and big are two common English words. Search collisions are expected. The C-number is the match key. Open the committee overlay for the tables, the Super PAC tracker for other type-O committees with a thin individual share, and the PAC directory when the two-word name matches more than one row. Stay inside those three links. Do not fold $10,508,008.58 into a candidate ledger.

A 68.6% spend-through ratio sits between the empty-the-register pattern and the single-digit spend pattern. The packet still does not split ads from overhead inside $7,205,188.17. Citing $500,000 individual next to $10,508,008.58 receipts is the category fact. Itemized schedules, where required, are on FEC.gov. LobbyVault does not endorse THINK BIG.
