Not on the November ballot
Pelbath is not on the November ballot for this seat. Nancy Lacore, Jenny Costa Honeycutt and Bill Reeside are.

Muted rows are campaigns not on the November ballot; this page's own row keeps its weight so the comparison stays readable. Showing 7 of the 10 campaigns that hold the seat, are on the ballot, or have $25,000 raised or outside spending; every filing is on the race page.
Spending to support them
$73K- Palmetto Priorities PAC$73K
Spending to oppose them
No committee has filed independent spending in this direction.
How these directions are decided
Independent expenditures reported to the FEC. The supporting or opposing direction is each committee's own declared filing, not an interpretation, and a group spending against a candidate is not necessarily spending for their opponent. Outside money is not the campaign's money and is never added to what they raised.
Record in office
Pelbath 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.
