Added 2021 Cycle 1 data to the Campaign Finance Data Explorer (just for Krasner, Vega and Rhynhart). Also here's a more detailed breakdown chart for the DA race (data from 1/1/20-3/29/21). A few high-level takeaways...
public.tableau.com/profile/philly…
Vega has received more support from the typical big 3 donor sectors in Philly - real estate, (building trades) unions and lawyers. Of all $ that we identified as coming from lawyers in this race, 79% went to Vega. 26% of Vega's lawyer support came from pre-Krasner DA employees.
Vega's top three donors have been Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 5 (a maxed out $25,200), himself ($21,273) and the PA Fraternal Order of Police PAC ($17,000).
But Krasner has made up for this by raising money from an incredibly large base of small donors, as well as quite a few large donations from wealthy philanthropists, celebrities, and tech industry donors from across the country (but NOT Soros - so far).
This chart doesn't include a third spender in the race: Protect Our Police PAC, who have repeatedly failed to file campaign finance reports on time. They are funding anti-Krasner ads thru $ from billionaire Timothy Mellon, the FOP, and numerous smaller donors from across the U.S.
