WinRed: in the Montana campaign finance record
WinRed appears in the Montana campaign finance record in two different roles, in the 2026 Montana election cycle.
Money WinRed gave to Montana campaigns in 2026
WinRed made 1 contribution totalling $100.00 to filers reporting in the 2026 cycle.
Money Montana campaigns paid WinRed in 2026
Montana filers reported 440 payments to WinRed totalling $12,697.99 in the 2026 cycle. Being paid by a campaign is a commercial relationship, not a donation.
These two figures are never added together. Giving money to a campaign and being paid by one are different relationships to that money. A combined "total activity" figure for WinRed would state something the record does not say.
What this record does not say about WinRed
It does not say why WinRed gave or was paid, what any payment bought, or what any of it caused. Totals are floors rather than exact figures, because the same real name can still appear in the record more than once under spelling variants.
WinRed is a CONDUIT. Money passing through a conduit was given by the individual people behind it, not by the conduit itself. The figure above is the total that passed through. It is not WinRed's own money and must never be described as WinRed donating to Montana campaigns.
