Money contributed by an individual directly to a particular campaign.

Individuals can currently contribute $2,300 to a candidate's primary campaign, and an additional $2,300 to a candidate's general election campaign. They can make these donations to multiple candidates.

The first $250 donated to a candidate by an individual can be matched dollar-for-dollar from federal matching funds.

Limits in state-wide elections vary according to state laws.
