A poll is a snapshot, not a forecast.
Official FEC filing record for the current cycle. The priorities they publish are quoted from their own site, in their order.
Statements are quoted from these pages exactly. Headings, order and wording are the campaign’s; the record marking is ours.
A donor who gave several times appears once. The 12 largest donors by total given are listed. In all, 78 itemized contributions were filed this cycle, totaling $43.7K.
Each loan as the campaign’s report through Oct 14, 2026 lists it, with what is still owed. A loan from an earlier cycle can appear here, and one repaid in full drops off the report, so the list need not add up to the row.
Total reported receipts $215,053
Every dollar the committee reported receiving this cycle, split by the source the FEC filing attributes it to. Open a source marked + to see who gave. FEC filings through Oct 14, 2026.

94% of the money placed by state came from inside Texas: $40.9K of $43.7K.
| Name | Amount |
|---|---|
| 71 contributions · 94% | $40,905 |
| 2 contributions · 2.3% | $1,000 |
| 3 contributions · 1.9% | $820 |
| 1 contribution · 1.1% | $500 |
| 1 contribution · 1.1% | $500 |
By the state each donor wrote on the filing, across 5 states and territories. Donors who have given $200 or less this cycle are not itemized, so they cannot be placed on a map. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total.
| Employer as filed | Amount |
|---|---|
| Written instead of an employer · 21 contributions · 35% of ranked | $11,970 |
| 1 contribution · 10% of ranked | $3,500 |
| 2 contributions · 10% of ranked | $3,500 |
| 1 contribution · 10% of ranked | $3,500 |
| 1 contribution · 7.6% of ranked | $2,569 |
| Written instead of an employer · 6 contributions · 3.2% of ranked | $1,100 |
| 1 contribution · 3% of ranked | $1,000 |
| 2 contributions · 2.4% of ranked | $800 |
A further $9,861 came from donors whose answer names no employer (N/A, None, blank), so it is not ranked. Itemized gifts over $200, grouped by the words donors filed: not an industry classification, and a gift from an employee is not a gift from the employer. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total. Gifts of $200 or less ($38,097) are not itemized, so no employer or occupation is filed for them.
Money groups spent on their own, not through a campaign. Each ad is filed against the candidate it names, so money attacking an opponent shows on the opponent’s row. Open a candidate to see who spent it.
Total itemized disbursements $79,917
Every itemized payment the committee reported this cycle, sorted by what it said each one was for. The categories are ours; the wording they are matched against is the committee’s own. Open a category to read the filed descriptions and who was paid. FEC filings through Oct 14, 2026.
All 83 itemized payments filed this cycle. Spending below the itemization threshold is not filed line by line.

|---|---|
| 2 payments · 18% of all spending | $18,502 |
| 10 payments · 5.9% of all spending | $6,110 |
| 4 payments · 5.9% of all spending | $6,109 |

| 1 payment · 4.6% of all spending | $4,768 |
| 3 payments · 4.2% of all spending | $4,400 |
| 1 payment · 3.4% of all spending | $3,500 |
| 2 payments · 2.9% of all spending | $3,000 |
The people, firms and committees paid the most, across every kind of payment. Each share is of everything the committee reported spending this cycle, not only the itemized payments above. A payee that is itself a committee links to its own profile.
| Occupation as filed | Amount |
|---|---|
| 19 contributions · 39% of ranked | $15,925 |
| Written instead of an occupation · 20 contributions · 19% of ranked | $7,920 |
