    The former candidate was named by Forbes Magazine as number 21 on the magazine’s “The Top 25 Most Powerful Women Of The Midterm Elections”. She supported education reform, including charter schools, using technology, alternative certification of teachers, and paying teachers six-figure salaries during the campaign.

    Ball also called for a lifetime ban on lobbying by former members of Congress. Also banning lobbyist gifts, increasing disclosure, and establishing a new Independent Ethics Commission to investigate and audit influence by special interests.

    Of her total funding, 72% was from out-of-state donors.

    Krystal Ball PAC

    She created the People’s House Project, a political action committee (PAC) working on behalf of Democratic causes in May 2017. McClatchy reported in May 2018, thus far, nobody has benefited more financially from the group than Ball herself.

    Of the $445,000 Ball raised for the group, she paid herself more than a third of that—$174,000—in salary, according to documents filed with the Federal Election Commission. The majority of her salary—$104,000—came in the first three months of this year alone.

    That’s nearly eight times more than the nearly $22,000 the PHP has used to support its dozen endorsed candidates, some of whom have received just a single $1,000 contribution.

    Ball responded to McClatchy’s reporting, saying that her salary ought to be $180,000 annually, but that because the PAC receives money in fits and starts. Ball explained that she had paid herself a large sum in the first months of 2018 as backpay for what she should have earned in 2017.
