Here are the top 100 political contributions made during the week ending Aug. 27, according to the Missouri Ethics Commission.
The average contribution amount that week was $741. This was higher than the previous week by 35.7 percent.
Donations made to political groups or candidates must be disclosed under state law for greater transparency in elections. While Congress created the Federal Election Commission to oversee federal elections in 1974, each state is left to regulate its local elections.
Data about contributions during a week are often incomplete and updated at the end of the quarter.
