UPDATE: VIlsack's PAC Takes In 1.6M, Spends 496K

Heartland PAC, chaired by IA Gov. Tom Vilsack, raised more than $1.6M in '06, spending a third of what was raised on contributions, travel, donor prospecting and staff, according to disbursements filed with the IRS.

Heartland is not a federal PAC; it solicits money only for races within states and can accept individual donations of any size.

A $100K check was written by Lewis Cullman, a New York venture capitalist and major party fundraiser.

The PAC ended the year with more than 1M CoH.

According to Politicalmoneyline.com, Heartland PAC "paid Blue State Digital more than $67,000 for website work. They paid Dewey Square Group almost $125,000 for consulting, rent, travel, insurance and other operating expenses. They have also contributed a total of $65,000 to party committees in Iowa, Kansas and New Jersey."
