Is it public information what the Presidential candidates spend the campaign contributions on each month?

Posted on February 5th, 2010 by admin

They raise over 60 mil/month – where can the public look up how they spend it? I remember Hillary had 2 people on her staff with a salary of over $200,000/month since then my curiosity is sparked.

Sort of – expenditures have to be accounted for and reported to the FEC. One could theoretically find out details through a FOIA request. Certainly the media has managed to ferret out such details, so there must be a way to do it.
