Not on the November ballot

Driver is not on the November ballot for this seat. La Shawn Ford and Chad Koppie are.

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

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. Showing 7 of 11 funded campaigns; every filing is on the race page.

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.

Record in office

Driver 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.
