51% of the $11.9M in contributions Lindsey Graham raised across the tracked cycles came from donors giving under $200 — the FEC's "unitemized" small-dollar tier — ranking #9 of 99 Senate members raising over $1M. Small-dollar totals are reported by campaigns directly to the FEC; individual donors below $200 are not itemized by law.

How we built this: a statistical pattern surfaced from public records — FEC campaign finance, Senate/House Lobbying Disclosure Act filings, and Congress.gov. The donor concentration and the legislative action are concurrent facts; this does not imply contributions caused the action, that the member acted improperly, or that the bill specifically benefits the named sector.
