Checked
What’s included?
These are candidate-wide totals, not money raised or spent only in Paducah or McCracken County.
FEC lists these authorized committees for this candidate. Their figures are combined in the summary; do not add their totals again.
Check the dates beside each figure. Reporting periods and aggregation settings differ between candidates, so these snapshots are not a fundraising ranking.
Reports may be revised. Independent spending is not included. The check time tells you when we captured the FEC page, not when a campaign filed its report.

THE OFFICE
What a U.S. senator does
- Kentucky elects two U.S. senators, each for a six-year term. [1]
- The Senate and the House of Representatives together make up Congress, which holds the federal government's lawmaking power. [1]
- The president's nominees for ambassador, the Supreme Court and other offices need the Senate's consent, and a treaty needs the approval of two-thirds of the senators present. [1]
- The Senate alone tries impeachments; conviction takes two-thirds of the members present. [1]
