Patch recently took a look at where your neighbors' dollars were headed in terms of the presidential race.
This week, we're turning it around to see who is supporting our local candidates for the state Legislature.
We've pulled data on candidates in the 5th and 31st districts, along with the King County Sheriff and Governor's races. To see individual donations and how the candidates are spending their money, click on the "view" link to the left of a name to go directly to that candidate's PDC reports. If you click on the candidate's name in the table below, it will take you to their candidate profile on Patch if they submitted one.
The independent support and opposition columns indicate the amount that outside groups not directly involved with the campaigns have spent to support or oppose the candidates, such as Political Action Committees.
Note: Figures have been rounded to the nearest dollar and are up-to-date as of Thursday, Nov. 1, 2012.
