Receipts

edit

There appears to be a problem with referencing receipts for campaigns. Code, not a reference is displayed. Any fixes? maniacgeorge (talk) 13:04, 6 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Re Maniacgeorge it seems the problem extends beyond the receipts all of the link to the fec.gov websites in the documentation were either timing out or dead links after running the external links check tool. The receipts script should pull from the FEC feeds or api directly if not via 3rd party e.g. sunlightfoundation. We ought to do an overhaul to this script once OpenFEC releases its stable version update.

Also I"m not sure why the docs suggest going to srdc.org to obtain the campaign committee filing id as opposed to the documents actually filed with the government..? --Vibrantmatter (talk) 07:22, 9 September 2015 (UTC) vibrantmatter (talk)Reply

More parameters needed

edit

Receipts is for money received. Receipts is already there. Then Total spent is needed for total money spent of the Receipts. Then Ending cash on hand is needed and multiple parameters for Debts/Loans owed to committee.[1]
