Campaign positions

What each campaign says.

Rebecca Cooke

Would ban stock trading by members of Congress and the White House, and end Citizens United to “get corporate and dark money out of politics”.

Cooke for Congress

Alexander Valiensi Kent

Would end political corruption rather than reduce it, through a political system with “no donors, no lobbyists, no Super PACs, and no political parties”, none of which he notes are in the Constitution.

  1. official action

    Alexander Valiensi Kent: Matches stated record claim

    His platform calls for ending political corruption rather than reducing it, through a system with no donors, no lobbyists, no Super PACs and no political parties, and he runs his own campaign on that basis. His principal campaign committee holds two filings of any kind with the Federal Election Commission: a Form 1 statement of organization dated April 24, 2026, and a Form 99 dated July 8, 2026. That Form 99 is not a blank submission. It repeats the pledge to take no donor, lobbyist, Super PAC or party money, states that the campaign had not reached $5,000 raised or spent, and files that statement in place of a July quarterly report. No report of receipts and disbursements has ever been filed. Limit: His own filed statement is stronger evidence than silence, and it is still not a reported zero: below five thousand dollars is not nothing, and the statement speaks only to July 8. What the record shows is his testimony and the absence of a financial report, not an audited figure.

  2. official action

    Rustin Levem Provance: Matches stated record claim

    His campaign site says he is running on faith and himself, that money should not buy elections, and that he will not be taking donations. His principal campaign committee holds three filings of any kind with the Federal Election Commission: Form 1 statements of organization dated December 7, 2023 and April 14, 2025, and a 2024 request for additional information. Across two cycles it has never filed a report of receipts and disbursements. Limit: Registering a committee and filing no report of receipts is consistent with raising nothing, but it is not the same as a filed statement that nothing was raised. What the record shows is the absence of a report, not a reported zero. The quotation reproduces his site's own wording, repeated word included.
