Filing with the FEC is a disclosure, not a place on the ballot. Money raised is not a forecast.
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.
House: bars drawn to $4.5M, the most raised; FEC reports through Oct 14, 2026.
