Total Politicized: 

*Spending was characterized as “political” if it involved events listed as “signature” Freedom 250 events on the Freedom 250 website or if it involved Trump allies or cabinet officials. Foreign contracts were excluded. As of 10/20 we are in the process of updating our politicized vs non-politicized totals.
