I analyzed the DC Office of Campaign Finance (OCF) reports for Ward 2 council candidates for the period
ending July 31 (including amended filings for Fanning, Grossman, and Kennedy).

Since all five candidates are seeking to qualify for public campaign financing under the Fair Elections Act,
contributions all come from individuals and are limited to $50 (except for the candidate and their family,
who can give up to $2,500). Therefore most of this analysis focuses on the number of contributors rather the
amount raised, and there's nothing about corporate contributions because the candidates are prohibited from
taking them.

The contributor numbers are interesting because they give a clue about how much support a candidate has.
There were 11 people who gave to more than 1 candidate, including 1 who gave to 3, 1 who gave to 4,
and 1 who gave to all 5.

John Fanning has not been certified for the program yet, but I included Fair Elections funds for him
because he seems to have enough DC contributors (I assume there's a minor problem like bad addresses
that can be corrected).
Daniel Hernandez is nowhere near qualifying yet.

Note that Jordan Grossman's total amount raised will likely drop by $7,716 that he will need to refund
because OCF changed its interpretation of the law limiting candidate and family contributions.
It looks like Kishan Putta has 3 contributors who gave $50 twice each, so he may have to refund $150
(or maybe that's a reporting error, but his total would still be $150 lower).

Note that Jordan Grossman's amount to refund results from OCF changing its interpretation of the law
limiting candidate and family contributions.
