Opensecrets.org -- Money in politics data
And here's the federal version of a similar "follow the money" database that I previously linked.

This one's sponsored by the Center for Responsive Politics - "a non-partisan, non-profit research group based in Washington, D.C. that tracks money in politics, and its effect on elections and public policy. The Center conducts computer-based research on campaign finance issues for the news media, academics, activists, and the public at large. The Center’s work is aimed at creating a more educated voter, an involved citizenry, and a more responsive government."

Some of the databases weren't working when I tried to "get local." You go for it.
