About these numbers

  • Oregon doesn’t limit contributions to candidates in this election, so unions, national groups and others give straight to the campaigns. Gifts of $100,000 or more from committees and groups are listed here, with when they came in. Spending by outside groups on their own isn’t listed here yet.
  • Raised and spent add up each campaign’s transactions from Jan. 1, 2025, through Oct. 21, 2026. Campaigns have seven days to report each transaction, so newer days aren’t complete yet.
  • Gifts listed below run through Oct. 27.
  • Governor campaigns file with the state, not the FEC, so these numbers come from the Oregon Secretary of State (opens in a new tab) and are read by hand after each state deadline, so a new filing can take a few days to show up here. National groups like the Republican and Democratic Governors Associations report to the IRS; their transfers are listed when they appear in state or IRS filings.
