By looking at her report, it looks like she only received $1000 from Sinquefield PACs.

You are correct. I misread it as four $325 contributions instead of three $325 contributions and one for $25. I will make the change. Thanks for pointing this out. My math would have been wrong even if it had been four $325 contributions, since that would have added up to $1,300, not $1,200
