Republican Party candidate receipts in Pennsylvania

How REP and Pennsylvania office state meet

This page is a join, not a restatement of either hub. Republican Party (REP) is one axis. Office state Pennsylvania (PA) is the other. $64,467,431.60 is only the overlap: candidate receipts that carry both the party code and the office-state key. The party overlay still holds $1,424,954,273.11. The Pennsylvania campaign-finance hub still holds every occupation and party coded to PA on other tables. Pennsylvania federal offices tagged PA and REP produce $64,467,431.60 across 613 records.

Party code REP is candidate affiliation on the FEC candidate master, not a Republican National Committee Form 3X total and not an NRSC or NRCC roll-up. Office state is the geography of the seat, not the donor’s address. Recipients in this cell are REP-coded candidates running from Pennsylvania, not a map of Pennsylvania residents’ gifts. RNC Form 3X is not inside $64,467,431.60.

A larger Pennsylvania cell than another state on a different page is a description of candidate receipts, not voting advice. Party codes are FEC labels, not a ranking of Pennsylvania voters.
