Methodology:VPAP geocoded the addresses to all donors to Donald Trump's 2020 re-election campaign and all known addresses of about 2,000 Virginia individuals who have donated to candidates running for the GOP nomination for Governor and their related committees. VPAP looked for matches with the exact same address and same last name. VPAP then looked at each record to ensure the two donors were the same person. In addition, VPAP did research to determine if any individual donors shared the same address with business donors to gubernatorial candidates. This additional research yielded a handful of additional donors. Because of the reliance on address matches, VPAP's methodology would have missed donors who were listed at one address in Trump disclosures and at another address in the disclosures of Virginia candidates.
