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. A hollow row is a candidate with no finance report on file yet, not one who raised nothing.

The whole race

Record in office

Cortese 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.
