Today, voters get an inside look into the personal finances of most of their elected officials.

Most, but hardly all.

One-fifth of the U.S. Senate, or 20 members, according to a tally by the Center for Responsive Politics, filed for extensions, meaning the financial disclosures won’t be released until later this summer.

In five cases, the new filing date for senators is listed as today’s date. OpenSecrets Blog contacted the offices of these senators to see if they had filed their personal financial disclosures, but most calls were not immediately returned.

A spokeswoman from Sen. Joe Machin (D-W. Va.) said his documents had been filed and would be released later today.

Once each year, the U.S. House and Senate publish reports about their members’ net worth and investments. The reports detail their stock, bond and mutual fund holdings, along with investments in real estate, ownership interests in private companies and large cash. They also include information about the finance of their spouses and dependent children, as well as any financial liabilities.

Here is a table of all 20 senators who requested filing extensions, along with the new due date for their financial filings. Of the 20 senators, 12 are Democrats, seven are Republicans and one — Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont — is an independent:
