November nominees first, then by money raised. Bars are in party color; raised includes loans from the candidate, and spent can exceed raised when a campaign spends money left from earlier cycles.
Senate: bars drawn to $14.5M, the most raised; FEC reports through Oct 14, 2026.
House: bars drawn to $2.2M, the most raised; FEC reports through Oct 14, 2026.
