Fundraising: the second quarter of 2026
What they say

“Jon Husted raised a campaign-record $7.7 million across all affiliated committees during the second quarter, more than doubling his first-quarter total and bringing his cash on hand to more than $11 million.”
What the record shows ·
His principal campaign committee, Husted for Senate, reported receipts of $260,995.17 for April 1 to 15 and $3,831,806.20 for April 16 to June 30, a total of $4,092,801.37, and cash on hand of $9,418,818.45 on June 30. Two joint fundraising committees raised money for him in the quarter. Husted Victory reported $3,219,278.53 in receipts. Team Husted reported $2,153,164.49 and passed $1,195,236.60 of it to his campaign, $513,005.51 to Ohio Flyer PAC and $151,205.93 to the NRSC. Team Husted also sent $4,680.07 to his leadership PAC. Husted Victory sent $35 to his campaign and $50 to that PAC. His leadership PAC, Jobs Opportunity Now PAC, reported $135,819.59. Counting each internal transfer once across those four committees, and leaving out what Team Husted passed to other groups, gives $7,736,850.87. Cash on hand across the six committees tied to him was $10,754,460.71 on June 30.
Why there is no assessment here
The quarterly filings show the joint fundraising committees' reported receipts and transfers. The four-committee total described above is $7.74 million, counting internal transfers once, in line with the fundraising claim. Cash on hand on June 30 was $10.75 million across all six, short of the "more than $11 million" claimed. The third-quarter reports, due October 15, show where the joint committees' money went next.
Limit: The six committees are his campaign committee, his nominee fund, his leadership PAC, Husted Victory, Team Husted and the Barrasso Husted Moody Fund. Cleveland Husted Victory registered on July 17, 2026, after the quarter. Other reasonable ways of counting give $7.31 million to $8.40 million. Whether the quarter more than doubled his first was not tested.
