Campaign money

Method

In the 2025–26 cycle Correa’s campaign raised $1.2M: $417K (34%) from individuals and $666K (54%) from PACs and other committees. Cash on hand: $2.5M.

Through Jun 30, 2026; filings lag, so recent gifts can take weeks to appear. Money raised also counts loans and transfers, so the shares need not add to 100%. Source: FEC.gov.
