Not on the November ballot
Castaneda is not on the November ballot for this seat. Veronica Escobar and Adam Bauman are.
Who is on the ballot is a filed fact about the contest, not a judgement about a candidate. Castaneda's campaign finance and record below are still their own record, and their committee may still be filing.

In their own words
What Castaneda's campaign says it would work on.

- “Border Binational Issues and Quality of Life”
- “Education: The Key to Success”
- “★ Raul Castañeda”
Quoted from bulletraul4congress16.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.
Campaign money
Castaneda has no campaign finance on file yet.
Committees report quarterly; an empty filing is not a statement about the candidate.
Record in office
Castaneda 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.
