Kansas candidate receipts: $23.7M, 73.2% Republican
Kansas federal candidates reported $23.7 million in receipts for the 2026 cycle, with Republican committees at $17.3 million and Democratic committees at $6.2 million. Other filers reported $111,994. The roster is 482 federal candidate committees. Kansas donors account for $329.1 million from 38,335 contributors. FEC.gov is the source for both series; they are not the same ledger.

Republican $17.3 million, Democratic $6.2 million
Republican candidate receipts are 73.2% of Kansas’s $23.7 million. Democratic receipts of $6.2 million are 26.4%. Other-party receipts of $111,994 are 0.5%. The split is a party-code roll-up of 482 committees. It is not a map of the 38,335 donors and not a forecast of any race.
A Senate committee or a small set of House committees can hold most of $23.7 million. The Kansas hub’s receipt sort shows which FEC IDs sit behind the $17.3 million Republican line.
A complete citation for Kansas names both $23.7 million in candidate receipts across 482 filers and $329.1 million from 38,335 donors, then stops. Adding a third invented total is how these pages go wrong.
482 filers behind $23.7 million
The candidate count of 482 includes House, Senate, and other federal filers with a Kansas association on the FEC record. Many of those committees hold little of the $23.7 million. Filer count is an inventory, not a November ballot.
Independent expenditures that mention a Kansas candidate sit outside the $23.7 million. Those amounts, when disclosed, belong to the Super PAC or PAC that paid for them.
Cycle 2026 remains open. Amendments move Form 3 receipts. Restated individual files move donor aggregates. If the live Kansas hub disagrees with this guide, the hub and FEC.gov control.
Kansas’s cycle-2026 candidate file is a receipt file. $23.7 million is inflows reported by 482 committees, not cash on hand and not money spent on ads. A committee can report receipts that still sit unspent. The Kansas hub’s receipt sort shows concentration without inventing a statistic that is not in the packet.
Kansas donors: $329.1 million from 38,335 people
The individual contribution total of $329.1 million exceeds the $23.7 million candidate book. Kansas residents give to national PACs, Super PACs, and out-of-state campaigns; those gifts remain Kansas donor dollars. The donor series does not inherit the 73.2% Republican candidate-receipt share.
Thirty-eight thousand three hundred thirty-five donors is the FEC contributor count. Occupation strings live on the underlying rows.
Kansas Governmental Ethics Commission
State-office campaigns in Kansas file with the Governmental Ethics Commission. Those reports are not in the $23.7 million or the $329.1 million. This page is federal 2026-cycle data from FEC.gov.
Kansas FEC totals
The Kansas FEC totals page carries the live 2026 table. Candidate, PAC, and Super PAC directories share the same FEC.gov backbone. Numbers on this guide are packet facts only.
Putting Kansas’s FEC fields on one page without mixing them
The packet for Kansas contains seven quantitative fields for cycle 2026: 482 candidates, $23.7 million in candidate receipts, $6.2 million Democratic, $17.3 million Republican, $111,994 other, $329.1 million donated, and 38,335 donors. This guide cites those fields and percentages computed from them. It does not cite poll numbers, independent-expenditure totals, or state-office filings, because those are not in the packet.
Candidate receipts of $23.7 million can include individual gifts, PAC transfers, and other inflows a campaign discloses. They do not include Super PAC ads. Donor totals of $329.1 million count itemized individual contributions originating from Kansas regardless of the recipient. The two series overlap only where a Kansas donor gave to a Kansas-tagged candidate committee.
Party shares — 26.4% Democratic, 73.2% Republican, 0.5% other — are receipt shares. They are not donor shares. The Kansas FEC totals page, the candidate directory, the PAC directory, and the Super PAC tracker are the four LobbyVault views that share FEC.gov as the source.
This page does not claim that 26.4% of Kansas donors are Democratic or that 73.2% are Republican. Those percentages apply to candidate receipts of $6.2 million and $17.3 million out of $23.7 million. It does not claim that $329.1 million was spent in Kansas. Donor dollars follow the recipient committee, which may file anywhere.
It does not claim that 482 candidates will appear on a general-election ballot. It does not convert $111,994 into a named third party. It does not add $23.7 million to $329.1 million. It does not include state-office money.
What it does claim is narrower: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault show these 2026-cycle totals for Kansas, and the Kansas hub plus the candidate, PAC, and Super PAC directories are the tables behind them.
