What were you trying to do and how can we improve it?

Check the money Trump raised vs biden and get a general vibe

General feedback?

I would like a little more info on how long it takes for the new data for May to go up to be more obvious. The website is pretty understandable and easy to use though so I think overall you are doing a good job

Tell us about yourself

I'm a private citizen, interested in verifying news I saw about Donald trump raising 50 million, 200 million since the trial verdict. I heard he had a single donor donate 100 million in May. I know it takes time for the info to get sorted and updated to the site but wouldn't Tuesday after a month ending on a Friday be long enough to get the data up if it's processed monthly?

The presidential map is updated the day after presidential committee filing deadlines.
