When we looked at our calendars on Wednesday, we were so happy to see that it was already the 20th of the month — committee filing day.
The House. The DCCC outraised the NRCC — no huge surprise there. The DCCC raised nearly $7.6 million in July and ended the month with $40.4 million in the bank. The NRCC raised more than $6 million and has $37.6 million in the bank.
Of note, the NRCC donated $300,000 to the National Republican Redistricting Trust on July 22.
The DCCC has fairly consistently outraised the NRCC each month this year, except in June, when the NRCC raised $18.1 million to the DCCC’s $12.7 million.
The Senate. Republicans fared better in the Senate. The NRSC outraised the DSCC by about $1 million.
The NRSC took in nearly $6.2 million in July and ended with $7.9 million in cash on hand. The committee spent nearly as much as it raised last month.
Meanwhile, the DSCC raised $5.1 million and ended with $11.8 million in the bank. It spent $6.8 million.
Senate Democrats have a pretty sizable cash-on-hand advantage here, although they still have outstanding campaign debt. The DSCC has $2.3 million left to pay back from last cycle, while the NRSC has none.
The parties. There’s a massive, massive money gap between the national party committees, and it could have a big impact both this fall and in 2026.
The DNC raised $8.5 million and had less than $14 million in the bank at the end of July. Compare that to the RNC, which raised $13 million last month and had a whopping $84.3 million on hand.
