Fundraising Hauls Show RNC Vastly Outpacing Democrats Ahead of Midterm Elections

Year-end Federal Election Commission filings show the Republican National Committee raised $172 million in 2025, holding a $100 million cash advantage over Democrats entering 2026.

  • The Republican National Committee reported raising $172 million in 2025 and ended with $95 million, leaving a nearly $100 million lead over the Democratic National Committee, according to FEC filings.
  • Despite the 2025 totals reflecting the year before early-2026 events, both parties contend with competitive primary candidates, with Democrats continuing to outraise Republicans in several races, federal filings show.
  • In the House, Republican campaign arm reported about $50 million cash on hand, with $117 million raised; Democrats had $115 million; in the Senate, NRSC raised $88 million, DSCC $79.8 million, with DSCC holding $21.7 million cash on hand.
  • House Speaker Mike Johnson said Sunday he was `bullish` on the GOP's fundraising and added, `We're going to have a war chest to run on,` as Senate Republicans defend a 53-47 majority with March 3 primaries next month.
  • With the March 17 primary looming, early voting and nomination fights will test current financial advantages as early-2026 events reshape donor sentiment.
