The records offer a last look at the financial positions of some of the candidates for mayor, attorney general and city council before primary election ballots go out to voters.

Both candidates opted into the city’s public financing program, which caps the amount of donations they may receive but matches those donations with taxpayer funding. In total, Bowser has raised nearly $3.7 million, while White has raised more than $1.4 million.The reports show how the campaigns ramped up this month: White spent more than $316,000, more than half of what he has spent the entire campaign.

As of Wednesday afternoon, mayoral candidate Trayon White Sr. had not submitted his report, which was due Tuesday evening. His April 10 report, submitted 15 days late, showed he had taken in just over $50,000 over the course of his campaign, much less than Bowser or Robert White, and had spent almost 70 percent of it by early April.

public safety-focused campaign to unseat two-term incumbent Brianne K. Nadeau, raised more than $7,000 from D.C. donors this month while Nadeau raised more than $2,500 from D.C. residents and a similar amount from nonresidents. Czapary has now raised a total of more than $108,000 when including public financing — the vast majority of it in the past month — while Nadeau’s fundraising stands at more than $180,000 but did not increase much over the most recent month.

The reports show significant spending in the crowded Ward 3 race, in which nine candidates are running and seven are taking public financing. Of the seven participating in the Fair Elections program, education activist Matthew Frumin has raised the most with $138,630, followed by Palisades community leader Tricia Duncan.
