Not on the November ballot
Matthews is not on the November ballot for this seat. Shomari Figures and Rhett Marques are.
A primary result is a filed fact about a contest, not a judgement about a candidate. Matthews's campaign finance and record below are still their own record, and their committee may still be filing.

Quoted from davidmatthewsforcongress.com, read August 14, 2026. A campaign site changes; this is what it said on that date. Curia quotes these and does not check, rate or rank them.
Record in office
Matthews has not held this office, so there is no federal voting record, no cosponsorships and no committee service to report.
That absence is not a position for or against anything; it is what a first federal campaign looks like in the public record.
