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; their money is still their own filed record. A hollow row is a candidate with no finance report on file yet, not one who raised nothing. Also on the ballot with no FEC filing, so no row: Winston Jordan. Showing 7 of the 14 campaigns that hold the seat, are on the ballot, or have $25,000 raised or outside spending, not counting campaigns that ended before any ballot; every filing is on the race page.

The whole race

In their own words

What Mele's campaign says it would work on.

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

  • “Economy and Affordability”
  • “Healthcare”
  • “Education”
  • “Public Safety and Crime”

Quoted from mele4america.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

Mele 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. Portrait: Campaign photo, campaign website (reference use, candidate's own published headshot). Nothing here is a forecast, a grade, or a ranking of candidates.
