Not on the November ballot

Cleveland is not on the November ballot for this seat. Aaron Flint, Sam Forstag and Nick Sheedy are.

Who is on the ballot is a filed fact about the contest, not a judgement about a candidate. Cleveland'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, incumbent first and then by name, never in money order.

Muted rows are campaigns not on the November ballot; this page's own row keeps its weight so the comparison stays readable. Also on the ballot with no FEC filing, so no row: Nick Sheedy.

The whole race

Record in office

Cleveland 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.
