These City Council Candidates Have Received the Most Campaign Contributions

The city’s Small Donor Elections program, which matches contributions with public dollars, is tracking all things campaign finance.

On its website, Portlanders can see how many donors each candidate has, whether those donations are big or small, and who’s raising the most money. Such data helps voters understand how much and what kind of support a candidate has: Some candidates may have more small donors, which might indicate broader support but less money, or they may have a small number of big donations, which might show sparser support from wealthier donors.

But let’s start with the simplest number: Here are the top 10 candidates who have received the most individual campaign contributions since July 1, 2023.
