Not on the November ballot
Dougherty is not on the November ballot for this seat. Jimmy Panetta and Peter Verbica are.
A primary result is a filed fact about a contest, not a judgement about a candidate. Dougherty's campaign finance and record below are still their own record, and their committee may still be filing.

In their own words
What Dougherty's campaign says it would work on.
The priorities Dougherty's own campaign site lists, quoted as written there. They are what the campaign says. Nobody has voted on them.
- “"This can be done, the only thing stopping it is your representative."”
- “Getting Money out of Politics”
- “Our Rights”
Quoted from seanforcongress.org, 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
Dougherty 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.
