UNITED DEMOCRACY PROJECT ('UDP') — FEC Super PAC receipts

Reading the FEC name, including the UDP tag

The committee's legal name on this packet is UNITED DEMOCRACY PROJECT ('UDP'). The FEC ID is C00799031. Search traffic often uses UDP Super PAC; the C-number is the match key when other groups use similar words. City and state of record are Washington, D.C. Treasurer of record is Christopher D'Alessio.

The name is not a project grade and not a finding about any party's internal operations. Independent-expenditure-only status is the Super PAC classification. LobbyVault cites the filings, not the branding.

Cite the packet facts in this order: $93,798,362.49 received, $27,759,760.40 disbursed, $91,208,986.79 individual, treasurer Christopher D'Alessio, Washington, D.C., committee C00799031. About 97.2% individual share and about 29.6% spend-through mean almost all inflows are coded individual and most are unmatched by disbursements in this aggregate. The parenthetical UDP is part of the FEC name.

Search traffic that uses only UDP still needs C00799031. Independent-expenditure-only status means Super PAC Form 3X, not a project grade. The leftover $2,589,375.70 of receipts is other categories. Keep $93,798,362.49 off of candidate campaign ledgers. Democracy in the name is branding. LobbyVault does not score it.

$93.8 million in and $27.8 million out

Total receipts are $93,798,362.49. Total disbursements are $27,759,760.40, about 29.6% of receipts. UDP has reported raising far more than it has reported spending in these aggregates. That gap is a filing comparison. It is not cash-on-hand, not a budget, and not a forecast of future independent expenditures.

Form 3X disbursement totals combine operating costs and independent expenditures unless you open the schedules. This packet does not. Anyone attributing a specific ad flight to UDP needs the IE filings on FEC.gov, then the committee page overlay for C00799031.

Form 3X is the report family behind UNITED DEMOCRACY PROJECT ('UDP')'s $93,798,362.49 receipt total and $27,759,760.40 disbursement total. Those two lines produce about 29.6% spend-through on committee C00799031. Individual contributions of $91,208,986.79 are about 97.2% of receipts. Treasurer Christopher D'Alessio and the Washington, DC, 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.

Individual contributions of $91.2 million

Individual contributions of $91,208,986.79 are about 97.2% of receipts. UDP's reported inflows are therefore almost entirely coded as individual. The remaining $2,589,375.70 of the receipt total sits in other FEC receipt categories not listed here.

A 97% individual share does not prove small-dollar fundraising. Super PACs may accept large individual contributions. Donor counts and names are outside this packet. The $91.2 million figure is a category total, useful next to the Super PAC tracker but incomplete as a donor story.

What the Super PAC flag requires of readers

Independent-expenditure-only committees file as Super PACs. They are not authorized candidate committees. Mixing UDP's $93,798,362.49 with a candidate's Form 3 receipts double-counts or mislabels money depending on how the reader uses it. Keep Form 3X on the committee side of the ledger.

No voting advice follows from these totals. Public records describe what C00799031 reported. They do not describe what any voter should do.

Where to go next on LobbyVault

The UNITED DEMOCRACY PROJECT ('UDP') committee page holds the tables this guide overlays. The Super PAC tracker lists other type-O committees on the same basis. The PAC directory is the broader committee index when you are matching a name that is not UDP. Stick to those three links; this packet does not authorize other hrefs.

UDP as a search tag, C00799031 as the match key

UNITED DEMOCRACY PROJECT ('UDP') carries the parenthetical in the FEC name. Search traffic that uses only UDP still needs C00799031 to avoid collisions. Christopher D'Alessio as treasurer and Washington, D.C., as the city of record complete the identity set. Independent-expenditure-only status is the Super PAC flag, not a project grade.

Individual contributions of $91,208,986.79 are about 97.2% of $93,798,362.49. Disbursements of $27,759,760.40 are about 29.6%. UDP is receipt-heavy and individual-coded in this aggregate. The packet does not call the unspent difference cash, and it does not list independent-expenditure targets.

Do not add $93,798,362.49 to a candidate's Form 3 receipts. Form 3X stays on the committee side. The leftover $2,589,375.70 of receipts sits in other FEC categories not named here.

The UNITED DEMOCRACY PROJECT ('UDP') committee page holds the tables. The Super PAC tracker and PAC directory are the other packet links. Public records describe what C00799031 reported. They do not describe what any voter should do.
