I know nothing about Rhode Island, or its politics, but Block lost to Allan Fung in the Republican primary by 3,131 votes in a light turnout, as Fung earned 17,530 votes (54.9%) to Block's 14,399 (45.1%). Gina Raimondo won the governorship with 131,899 (40.7%) over Fung 117,428 (36.2%). Raimondo won the election, becoming the first Democrat to be elected governor since Bruce Sundlun in 1992 (Chafee had been elected as an Independent in 2010, switching to the Democratic Party during his term). Raimondo became the first female governor in Rhode Island history.
Ken Block unsuccessfully ran for governor of Rhode Island in 2010 and 2014.
My research indicates that he did not have a PAC, nor did he ever receive any money from a PAC.
My research via Block's Campaign Finance Summary indicates $858,217 (2014) and $554,871 (2010) = $1,413,088 in contributions.
I could not locate what Block's unused funds balance was, but it's my understanding that none can be used for personal expenses.
I could not locate what his book sales are, but there are links below to order it.

I still think it was a shame that he was not a guest on Fox News and other right-leaning broadcast outlets to present his research and its findings. His was an objective, take me where the fact lead me, study and he made that clear with Trump's campaign before the contract for his services was signed. There are many people in this country who never heard of Ken Block or his study and its results, unfortunately.
Many searched for evidence of voter fraud in 2020, only a few were unbiased professionals . . . and only one has written a book about his experienc...
