Against the field for this seat

Each campaign's reported receipts on one shared scale, incumbent first and then by name, never in money order.

Muted rows are campaigns not on the November ballot; their money is still their own filed record. A hollow row is a campaign whose filing reports no money raised.

The whole race

In their own words

What Peterson's campaign says it would work on.

The priorities Peterson's own campaign site lists, quoted as written there. They are what the campaign says. Nobody has voted on them.

  • “Government Accountability”
  • “A Labor-First Economy”
  • “Idaho Is Not for Sale”
  • “Patients Over Profits”
  • “Reimagine Public Education”
  • “Homes for Families, Not Hedge Funds”
  • “Energy Independence for the People”
  • “Protect Women and Medical Providers”
  • “A Guarantee for Seniors”
  • “Idaho Is Not a Tech Dumping Ground”
  • “Digital Privacy Is a Constitutional Right”
  • “Defending Personal Freedoms”

Quoted from kayleeforcongress.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

Peterson does not hold a seat in Congress now, so there is no current voting record, cosponsorships or committee service to show here.

That absence is not a position for or against anything.

Candidates and financing from the FEC, public domain. Portrait: Campaign photo, campaign website (reference use, candidate's own published headshot). Nothing here is a forecast, a grade, or a ranking of candidates.
