Muted rows are campaigns not on the November ballot; their money is still their own filed record.
Record in office
Pooley 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.
