In the news

Recent reporting on federal elections, candidate fundraising, and campaign finance.

The Race archives federal elections (President, Senate, House) from FEC bulk (weball + pas2 + cm) + FEC presidential summary tables + FEC/MEDSL election results + state primary adapters. Election cycles stay separate. Field receipts sum each candidate's reported receipts and can double-count transfers; they are not certified cycle fundraising. Popular votes attach for the general election and, when available, the party primary. Built 2026-09-23T16:02:32Z. How metrics are calculated: methodology.
