Caveats: Totals combine state/local candidate expenditures (NYSBOE Schedule F), county/town party committee and club expenditures, and congressional campaigns’ FEC top-expense lists (partial). Excluded as pass-throughs or non-vendors: credit cards (American Express, Citi, Chase, Visa), banks, payroll processors (ADP, Paychex, Paycor, Gusto, Payroll Data Processing), payment platforms (ActBlue, WinRed, Anedot, PayPal, Square, Stripe), postage, taxes, utilities and phone, health insurance, refunds, payments to individuals (staff pay and reimbursements, $2.9M) and transfers to party or candidate committees ($3.6M, e.g. NRCC). Name variants merged (e.g. “Fabrizio Lee” and “Fabrizio, Lee & Associates”); McLaughlin Media and McLaughlin & Associates are listed separately as distinct firms. Judicial candidates excluded. Contributions back: NYSBOE contributions made in each firm’s own name to Long Island candidate and party committees, Nov 5, 2025 – Oct 19, 2026; contributions by principals or staff are not included (no reliable match found). Federal law bars corporate contributions to federal candidates. Descriptions come from firm websites or filing purposes; “role not stated in filings” where unverified.
