Not on the November ballot

Clayton is not on the November ballot for this seat. Virginia Foxx, Chuck Hubbard and Robert Luffman are.

Who is on the ballot is a filed fact about the contest, not a judgement about a candidate. Clayton'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, after this page's own row, 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. A hollow row is a candidate with no finance report on file yet, not one who raised nothing.

The whole race

In their own words

What Clayton's campaign says it would work on.

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

  • “Homeless Veterans”
  • “The Social Security, Medicaid, & Medicare Protections Act”
  • “The Patient Priority Act”
  • “No Stock Trades For Elected Officials”
  • “National Conflict of Interest Bill”
  • “Incumbent Representative Campaign Reform”
  • “Congressional Wage / Minimum Wage Reciprocity Act”
  • “The Policing Wellness Act”
  • “The Due Process Act”
  • “Zero Kings Act”

Quoted from clayton4nc.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

Clayton 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. Nothing here is a forecast, a grade, or a ranking of candidates.
