AFSCME Council 5 People Fund spent the most money among political committees in a city within Dakota County during the second quarter of 2022, according to the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board.

The largest expense was for Payroll Expenses to AFSCME Council 5, which is based in South St. Paul.

The second largest political spend from a committee operating in a city within Dakota County during the second quarter of 2022 came from Minn Seasonal Recreational Property Owners, PAC. It spent $1,905 during the time period on two different vendors.

Political campaign financial data is often updated at the end of each quarter, leading to a sometimes incomplete picture of a committee or candidate's finances.

In 2022, Minnesotans donated nearly $59 million to political causes. This is significantly lower than donations contributed in 2020 when more than $136 million was donated.

Minnesota has a maximum political contribution limit of $4,000 over two years. The limit is highest for the Governor and Lieutenant Governor races and lower for the Attorney General and legislative races.
