Projected Share of Contributions to Statewide Candidates If Public Financing Had Applied in 2022 — With Increased Small-Donor Participation

Notes: The share of contributions between $251 and $999 is zero because the model assumes all donations of between $250 and $2,550 would change to $250 since donations in that range would be worth less than a matched $250 donation.
The model doubles each candidate's number of small donors and assumes each new donor gives $50.
