Receipts, cash on hand, and outside (independent-expenditure) spending from the Federal Election Commission. Bars are scaled within this race. Primary is Sept 15, 2026 (not yet held as of 2026-06-25). Coons (incumbent, seeking a third full term) is the cleared-field Democratic frontrunner; his only primary challenger, Christopher Beardsley, withdrew to run for state senate. GOP field is Shulli vs. Katz. Race rated Solid/Safe D. The field and its fundraising will keep updating as primaries settle and new FEC reports land.
The rating is grounded in this seat’s record on Akashic — its partisan lean, same-office history, and demographics. Read the full profile on the DE state page.
