The above reports were derived from campaign contribution data retrieved from the Alachua County Supervisor of Elections web site or office on the date I obtained it. Although much care was given to provide accurate statistics, I can provide no guarantee that the information reported above is accurate. You can always run the numbers yourself and compare them to my reports. -Susan Wright
