What the financial figures mean

Funds raised show how much campaign money each candidate has reported receiving, while funds spent show reported campaign expenditures. The figures do not describe a candidate’s experience, priorities or views on public policy.

Spending can also differ from fundraising. Carbonara’s reported spending is higher than the amount reported raised, while Earley, Burck and Askar report spending less than they raised. Anderson and Baxter each report equal fundraising and spending totals, and Avila reports zero for both categories. No cash-on-hand amount is listed for any candidate in the field.

Issues and election date

None of the 11 candidates has documented policy positions on file. The official profiles therefore do not establish where the candidates stand on taxes, federal spending, immigration, health care, abortion, foreign policy or other congressional issues.

Voters in Florida’s 22nd Congressional District are scheduled to choose among the candidates in the general election on Nov. 3, 2026.
