These figures for Western Native Voice Action Fund follow the same rules as the public campaign finance site. Only filed reports count. Money a campaign moves between its own accounts is left out, because it is not new money. The contribution figure is cash, as on the state's Cash Summary, and goods and services given in kind are reported beside it, never inside it. Refunds paid back to contributors are subtracted. Other receipts are interest, rebates and similar receipts, not donations. A debt is money still owed, not money spent, and a loan repaid in full is not listed as owed.

## Largest contributors to Western Native Voice Action Fund

| Contributor | Given, net of refunds | Refunded | Contributions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Movement Voter PAC | $150,000.00 |  | 3 |
| Montana Values Action Fund | $69,000.00 |  | 2 |
| Montana Values Action Fund | $45,000.00 |  | 1 |
| Western Organization of Resource Councils | $13,000.00 |  | 1 |
| Treasure State PAC | $7,500.00 |  | 1 |
| Alayna Weber | $1,000.00 |  | 1 |
| Leah Berry | $0.00 | $100.00 | 1 |

Where the campaign refunded part of a contribution, the refund is subtracted: "Given, net of refunds" is what the contributor gave minus what was paid back, and "Refunded" is the amount paid back. The filing itself shows the gross contribution. A refund is matched to a contributor by name, because the record does not link a refund to the contribution it returns, so a refund under a different spelling stays unmatched and that contributor's figure stays gross.
