Reports through Oct 14, 2026. Matched to the FEC by name, party and seat, so it could be the wrong person.
How these are counted
Later filings are not in yet. Totals for the 2025 to 2026 cycle. Main committee: Elaine Luria for Congress. No donor names are shown.
Spectrum
1 published measureThe marker is the one published measure below. The middle means centrist on that measure’s own scale, not the middle of Congress. How this works
By donors (CFscore, 2024 cycle)
Research estimate from Stanford DIME 4.0. Source
Matched by name only, so it could be the wrong person. Only 1 donor, so this is a weak read.
Method and limits
Published score −0.832 on a scale from −2.0 to 2.0, where 0 is the center. 1 donors. License: ODC-BY 1.0.
Places a candidate by who gave them money; candidates who share donors sit close together.
Reflects the donor network, not votes or views, and comes from past cycles, not a 2026 reading.
