Friends of Greg Vanwoerkom spent the most out of all the political committees based in cities associated with Muskegon County during the fourth quarter of 2021, according to the Michigan Department of State.

The committee paid $10,764 to four vendors.

The largest expense was $5,000 paid to Washington-based U.S. House of Representatives for contribution.

The second largest political spend from a committee operating in a city within Muskegon County during the quarter came from Muskegon County Conservative Womens Caucus. It spent $159 during the time period on two different vendors.

What’s known as “dark money,” which comes from political non-profits and shell corporations, has greatly increased expenditures and donations in recent elections to record-breaking highs.

Total political expenditures in the 2022 elections amounted to more than $444 million.

Political campaign financial data is often updated, leading to a sometimes incomplete picture of a committee or candidate's finances.
