## What this record does not say about Brian Heino

It does not say whether Brian Heino won any of these elections. CERS records candidacies and money, not results.

Contribution totals are floors, not exact figures. The same real person or business can appear in the record more than once under spelling variants, and merging those into single identities is ongoing work. A total means "at least this much".
