Arizona’s $64.3M candidate book is a close Democratic–Republican split

1,040 committees, $64.3 million in receipts

Arizona’s candidate roster of 1,040 is large relative to the $64.3 million receipt total. House districts, a Senate line, and other federal filers with an Arizona association sit in that count. Many of the 1,040 committees hold little cash. The Arizona hub’s receipt sort, not the raw filer count, shows which campaigns moved money.

Other-party receipts of $575,067 are 0.9% of the state candidate book — a larger other-party share than in several neighboring states, still under one percent. Adding $33.5 million Democratic and $30.2 million Republican reconstitutes most of the $64.3 million.

Treat Arizona’s candidate book as competitive on paper because $33.5 million and $30.2 million are close, and treat that observation as a filing fact, not as a race rating. The 1,040 committees and the 84,715 donors are still two files.

A $3.3 million gap between the major-party lines

Democratic candidate receipts are 52.1% of Arizona’s $64.3 million. Republican receipts are 47.0%. The dollar gap of about $3.3 million is small enough that a single large amended report could narrow or reverse it. LobbyVault reports the numbers as filed. It does not treat the split as a prediction about any Arizona race.

Party codes attach to candidate committees. The 84,715 donors in the individual contribution file are not coded Democratic or Republican in this aggregate.

If a later FEC extract widens or closes the $33.5 million / $30.2 million gap, the Arizona FEC totals page will show it. This guide’s printed $64.3 million is a snapshot. PAC and Super PAC directories remain the tables for money that never entered a candidate committee.

Arizona donors: $650.3 million

The individual contribution total of $650.3 million from 84,715 donors exceeds the $64.3 million candidate book. Arizona residents give to national PACs, Super PACs, and campaigns outside Arizona. Those gifts remain Arizona donor dollars. They do not automatically appear as Arizona candidate receipts.

Using $650.3 million as a proxy for “Arizona campaigns raised” would overstate the candidate series. Using $64.3 million as “all Arizona political money” would hide the outbound donor flow. FEC.gov publishes both; this page prints both.

Secretary of State filings are out of scope

Arizona state-office campaigns file with the Secretary of State. Those reports are not in the $64.3 million or the $650.3 million. This page is federal 2026-cycle data from FEC.gov.

Arizona FEC totals and directories

The Arizona FEC totals page is the live roll-up. The candidate directory lists the 1,040 committees. PAC and Super PAC directories cover the entities that receive a share of the $650.3 million donor stream. Source for every figure here is FEC.gov as indexed on LobbyVault.

A close party split on $64.3 million in candidate receipts

Democratic candidate receipts of $33.5 million (52.1%) and Republican receipts of $30.2 million (47.0%) sit close together on Arizona’s $64.3 million book. Other-party receipts are $575,067 (0.9%). A gap that small can reverse after one amended report from a large committee. LobbyVault reports the numbers as filed. It does not treat 52.1% / 47.0% as a prediction.

1,040 federal candidate committees produced those receipts. Many hold little of $64.3 million. The Arizona hub’s receipt sort, not the raw filer count, shows which campaigns moved money. The candidate directory attaches FEC IDs so an original report can be opened.

$650.3 million from 84,715 Arizona donors remains a separate series. The close party split on candidate receipts does not describe those donors. Super PAC and PAC gifts from Arizona addresses sit in $650.3 million and sit outside $64.3 million unless they were contributed to a Arizona-tagged candidate committee.

Start with the question. If the question is candidate fundraising in Arizona, read $64.3 million across 1,040 committees and the party split $33.5 million / $30.2 million / $575,067. If the question is money originating from Arizona addresses, read $650.3 million and 84,715. If the question is independent spending, leave both series and open Super PACs.

Double-counting happens when someone adds $64.3 million to $650.3 million, or treats PAC receipts as candidate receipts, or folds state-office filings into FEC totals. Each of those moves invents a number that is not on FEC.gov.

The candidate directory is the path to a single FEC ID. The Arizona FEC totals page is the path to the state roll-up. Cycle 2026 filings remain the underlying documents. LobbyVault indexes them; it does not replace them.

How much have Arizona donors given federally?
