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.

The whole race

In their own words

What DeSpain's campaign says it would work on.

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

  • “Border Security & Immigration Reform”
  • “Veterans Issues”
  • “Public Safety and Crime”
  • “Addressing Homelessness, Addiction, and the Mentally Ill”
  • “Affordable Housing for Working Americans”
  • “Climate Change & Environment”
  • “Education”
  • “Economy”
  • “Energy”
  • “Government Transparency & Accountability”
  • “National Security and Foreign Policy”
  • “Election Integrity”

Quoted from moniqueforcongress.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

DeSpain 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.
