Across the 10 states included in Transparency USA’s database, several prominent women dominated donor lists in the 2020 election cycle. Some, like Karla Jurvetson and Deborah Simon, targeted key state-level elections across multiple swing states. Others focused their contributions closer to home, supporting candidates and PACs in their state of residence. While Transparency USA focuses on state-level campaign finance, all of these women have supported federal candidates and causes as well. See those contributions here.

In Pennsylvania, candidates raised money up and down the ballot in hopes of convincing voters they were the right choices to serve a term in office. While numerous candidates were prolific fundraisers during 2020, a handful of candidates stand out as the top fundraisers in the state. Here is a look at the top ten candidates in the state by funds raised — some of whom were successfully elected and several who were not, despite their appearance on this list.
