Campaign money

Method

In the 2025–26 cycle Evans’s campaign raised $5.4M: $2.1M (39%) from individuals and $1.4M (26%) from PACs and other committees. Cash on hand: $3.9M.

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.
