Campaign money

Method

In the 2025–26 cycle Lee’s campaign raised $2.3M: $1.9M (83%) from individuals and $230K (10%) from PACs and other committees. Cash on hand: $741K.

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.
