- Assets and income are summed at the bottom of Form 700 value ranges, so the displayed totals are minimums, not estimates.
Field notes
The page describes combining Form 700 statements with Cal-Access campaign records, with navigation into people, races, holdings, bills, and donors. Its calculations preserve an important constraint: Form 700 reports value ranges, so assets and income are summed using each range’s lower bound. The site also says lobbying figures cover reports since 2024 and behested payments are drawn from Form 803.
