From now thru November I'll be posting more detailed info on my Blue26.org Dem fundraising project twice a month. Here's how my U.S. Senate fundraising breaks out through 8/15/26. Out of over $156K, 14% has gone to candidates who aren't even up this cycle or who dropped out/lost their primary. 1/

The reason candidates who aren't even running this cycle are listed is because some donors set up monthly recurring payments and then never bother to turn them off. I'm still raising money for some candidates who haven't been on the ballot since 2020!

Of the $134K I've raised for actual 2026 Democratic Senate nominees, ~64% has gone to the 9 frontline/top tier candidates; ~33% has gone to the 14 long shot candidates (and yes, I consider El Sayed a long shot for the time being). The remaining 3% went to what *should* be safe blue seats.
