- pac-hunter: A US election finance utility to search donations from specific PACs to candidates of interest, using OpenFEC

RAYPAC donations to 2020 election deniers and the open source project they inspired me to create
When researching donation history for RAYPAC, I discovered that the FEC maintains a pretty awesome API into nearly all aspects of federal election finance called OpenFEC. This gave me the idea to write a small utility wrapping this API to allow a user to quickly pull historical data of direct donations from a specific PAC to any number of candidates someone might be interested in. For my use case of election deniers, I used data maintained by [](fivethirtyeight.com) to search RAYPAC FEC reciepts with my tool and ![visualized the results](https://github.com/jlwhelan28/pac-hunter/blob/main/heatmap_example.png) in just a few lines of code.
