Hard money
Money contributed by an individual directly to a particular campaign.
It is limited under the 1971 Federal Election Campaign Act to $1000 per candidate per federal (i.e. presidential or congressional) election.
The first $250 donated to a candidate by an individual can be matched dollar-for-dollar from federal matching funds.
Limits on statewide elections vary according to state laws.
