Where August fits in the pattern

August's total matches the smallest monthly figure recorded since June 2026, when a single $36 contribution also came in FEC +1. The series low remains $25, reached in December 2025, and the series high remains about $786, reached in July 2026 FEC +2. Averaged across that stretch, New Carlisle's monthly NRSC giving runs about $156, a figure pulled up mainly by July's spike FEC. Since the first recorded value of $25 in October 2025, the August figure is up 45.8% FEC +1.
