In the 2025–26 cycle Smucker’s campaign raised $1.5M: $225K (15%) from individuals and $804K (53%) from PACs and other committees. Cash on hand: $811K.

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.
