Wisconsin contributors gave more than $4.4 million in 2020 to outside electioneering groups that often smear candidates in state and federal elections. About $2 of every $3 went to Democratic-leaning groups.
The contributions came from about 800 Wisconsin contributors and went to nearly five dozen so-called 527 groups, which are named after the IRS rules that govern them. 527 groups can raise and spend unlimited amounts from any sources. The groups are run by powerful special interests, like manufacturing, business, health care, and conservative and liberal ideological outfits.
