Method

In the 2025–26 cycle Massie’s campaign raised $8.8M: $8.7M (98%) from individuals and $117K (1%) 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.
