Method

In the 2025–26 cycle Klobuchar’s campaign raised $2.5M: $1.6M (63%) from individuals and $159K (6%) from PACs and other committees. Cash on hand: $1.2M.

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.
