High Country Times

Cat Perry Campaign Committee, based in a city associated with Watauga County, was the only political committee in the county with expenses during October.

It spent $2,650 on six vendors during the time period.

The largest expense was for Advertisement to High Country Press, which is based in Boone.

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.

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