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. 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.

The whole race

Record in office

Purves 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.
