All their vendor spend before April was allocated equally to all 15 candidates they supported, so I'm guessing it went toward publicizing their list of endorsed candidates. In April they spent more on print advertising for specific candidates, but not the three incumbents.

the finance report does list their expenditures on payroll for staffers, however it does not include a ward by ward breakdown for the canvassing efforts. in total we love mpls spent $163,837.56 on payroll / canvassing

I am enjoying the fact that they pissed away over $9400 of landlords' money on Marques Jones only to have him ride off on his lawnmower before the convention.

my favorite is spending any amount of money in the ward 13 race given there is no challenger to linea palmisano. you could argue it's to drive turnout in favor of the mayor, but this is ward 13. you don't need to put in effort to have that happen naturally

however the most money combined has gone into the efforts to oust robin wonsley and katie cashman, with more than $15k+ spent between michael baskins and shelley madore in ward 2 and the same amount in ward 7 on elizabeth shaffer and paula chesley

for candidate spending, highest totals per candidate are on lydia millard in ward 10 and brian strahan in ward 1, both of whom have had more than $10k spent on their races
millard is running against council VP aisha chughtai and strahan against council president elliott payne
