What they're running on

From their campaign site, in their own words. Not the pond.

  • In Congress, Eric will focus on lowering costs, supporting small businesses and restoring stability to an economy that no longer feels affordable for working families. ericprattmn.com
  • Eric Pratt supports law enforcement, first responders and policies that keep families safe and communities secure. ericprattmn.com

Funding — not the pond

FEC money track · 2024–2026 cycle · never part of the pond

Did they take money from PACs that funded both Democrats and Republicans? Money never moves the pond.

Campaign — didn’t take the both-sides check

$0 TAKE (dual-party PAC)

Under $1,000 from PACs that fund both parties this cycle. Super PACs are not in this number. Money never moves the pond.

Context. Not the pond. Taking the check is not a flip. Flipping after the check, and staying quiet, is.

Traditional PAC contributions to candidate committees only. A dual-party PAC gave at least $1,000 to both parties. AIPAC in this table is committee C00797670. Legal, disclosed, hard-capped. Super PACs and dark money are not in this number. Taking this money is common. The amount is the story. HippoCricket doesn't put this in the pond. Download the PAC table.
