Not on the November ballot

Ruzevich is not on the November ballot for this seat. Sean Casten and Niki Conforti are.

A primary result is a filed fact about a contest, not a judgement about a candidate. Ruzevich's campaign finance and record below are still their own record, and their committee may still be filing.

Separately, $347 in independent expenditures was reported for and against this candidate by outside committees. That money is not the candidate's receipts and is not part of the mix above.

Against the field for this seat

Each campaign's reported receipts on one shared scale, in ballot order, not money order.

Muted rows are campaigns not on the November ballot; this page's own row keeps its weight so the comparison stays readable.

Spending to oppose them

No committee has filed independent spending in this direction.

How these directions are decided

Independent expenditures reported to the FEC. The supporting or opposing direction is each committee's own declared filing, not an interpretation, and a group spending against a candidate is not necessarily spending for their opponent. Outside money is not the campaign's money and is never added to what they raised.

In their own words

What Ruzevich's campaign says it would work on.

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

  • The Root of the Problem
  • Representing You and Only You
  • ICE & Immigration Reform
  • Climate and Energy
  • Education
  • AI & Data Center Regulation
  • Gaza
  • Breaking Up Monopolies and Supporting Small Businesses
  • Womens Rights
  • Guns
  • Ending Endless Wars & Wasteful Pentagon Spending
  • Veterans Support

Quoted from joey4congress.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

Ruzevich 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.

Candidates and financing from the FEC, public domain. Nothing here is a forecast, a grade, or a ranking of candidates.
