Long Run PAC, established by Mandela Barnes after his 2022 Senate loss, spent significantly more on administrative costs than average, with 38.1% of itemized expenses going to travel, rent, and staff. Despite this, it only contributed 14.1% of its funds to other candidates. Barnes team argues that the PAC raised and contributed over $445,000 when counting solicitations on behalf of others. However, Republicans criticize the PAC as an uncontrolled bloated machine.
