Candidate Rankings
Hollowell's $135,436 haul places her toward the lower end of Georgia's candidate field in the 2026 cycle. The state's top fundraisers are far ahead: T. Jonathan Ossoff raised $60.4 million and holds $32.5 million in cash on hand, while Shawn Harris raised $7.9 million with $74,000 remaining, and Earl Leroy Carter raised $6.8 million with $1.7 million in cash on hand. All Georgia federal candidates combined raised approximately $1.08 billion in the 2026 cycle, meaning Hollowell's campaign represents less than 0.02% of the state aggregate.
Incumbents vs. Challengers
Incumbents in Georgia are generally outraising challengers and open-seat candidates by a wide margin in the 2026 cycle. Hollowell, running as an open-seat candidate, faces the typical fundraising disadvantage that comes without the name recognition and donor networks that sitting members of Congress tend to hold.
