The 2016 U.S. Election is so hot and rich that even with a month to go, the Federal Election Commission has recorded 12.6 million individual campaign donations.
For comparison's sake, the 2014 cycle had just 2.1 million donors. And the last presidential cycle, 2012, had 3.3 million donors.
The bottom line is that we can't import all the data directly into Excel (nevermind Google Sheets). But we can at least import the subset of data that we need (under a million rows) without having to crack out a database.
