Candidate
Sotiropoulos, Sam raised $9,558 from 10 contributors across 2 Toronto municipal campaigns, 2006–2010.
Each bar is one campaign for one office. Totals are what was filed with the City Clerk, before any contribution returned.
Official results from the City's poll-by-poll releases. Money raised per vote received divides contributions by votes — it is not what the campaign spent, because the archive holds contributions and not expenses.

Individual, corporate and union money across every campaign.
Corporate and union contributions were legal in the 2006 Toronto election and flowed to every office. They were barred from city council and mayoral campaigns from the 2010 election onward.
That ban did not cover school board trustee campaigns, which ran under provincial rules and kept accepting corporate and union money legally through 2014 — 148 such contributions to Toronto District School Board trustees in 2010 and 166 in 2014. A province-wide ban closed that gap for the 2018 election.
Third party advertisers, a category that first existed in 2018, were not covered by either ban and could still accept corporate and union contributions.
A small residue of corporate contributions to council campaigns survives after the ban — 23 in 2010 and 12 in 2014 — which the City publishes as filed and does not verify.
This candidate ran for a school board, where corporate and union contributions remained legal through the 2014 election.

By forward sortation area — the first three characters of the postal code, which is the finest geography the City publishes for individual donors. Shading is by quantile, so each band holds a fifth of the areas with money: contribution totals are skewed enough that equal dollar intervals would put almost every area in the lightest band.
7% of this money came from outside Toronto, which the map above does not cover.
