Finance Reports
Campaign committee registered; no periodic FEC report on file yet
Checked 2026-09-24: principal campaign committee C00536276 (candidate ID H0NV02167) has no periodic Form 3 report (quarterly or pre-/post-election) covering 2025–26 in the FEC electronic-filing list or the FEC image index, so no receipts, spending or cash on hand have been reported yet. A committee registered after June 30 files its first report with the October Quarterly (due Oct 15, 2026).
Sep 24, 2026 · Official · Federal Election CommissionNo authorized campaign committee on file with the FEC for the 2026 cycle
Checked 2026-09-24: FEC bulk candidate-committee linkage (ccl26) and committee master (cm26), FEC-processed 2026-09-23, for candidate ID H0NV02167. No committee is linked for 2026, so there are no FEC receipts, expenditures or campaign contacts to record. The candidate record lists principal committee C00536276 from an earlier cycle; it is not registered in the 2026 committee master and the FEC docquery filings index shows no report covering 2025–26 (checked 2026-09-24). Committee registration is required only after $5,000 in contributions or expenditures (52 U.S.C. 30101(2)).
