Show Us the Money

Lore Bergman is running for Tennessee's 6th U.S. House District in the 2026 election as a Democratic primary candidate, but a search of Federal Election Commission records shows no fundraising activity for her principal campaign committee.

The FEC database contains no financial records for Lore Bergman for US Congress, the committee handling her campaign. No total receipts, individual contributions, PAC money, or cash-on-hand figures are available. The absence of data raises questions about filing status or timing.

Without FEC records, Bergman's fundraising totals cannot be reported. The committee ID appears in the FEC system, but no financial line items have been filed or made public as of this reporting date.

Candidate Rankings

Across Tennessee's 2026 congressional races, Republican candidates are far outpacing Democrats in total receipts. Republican candidates in the state numbered 25 and raised a combined $21,084,878.40, while Democratic candidates numbered 22 and raised $5,638,352.52 combined.

Among the state's top fundraisers, Republican Bill Hagerty leads with $5,880,481.66 in total receipts and $5,674,879.45 in cash on hand as of March 31, 2026. Republican Matthew Robert Van Epps raised $1,982,057.18, and Republican Charles J Fleischmann brought in $1,875,333.81. Democrat Chaz Molder raised $1,825,648.12, and Republican David Kustoff collected $1,813,310.79.

Bergman's position in the state rankings cannot be determined without fundraising data.

Incumbents vs. Challengers

Bergman is not an incumbent. Across Tennessee's 2026 cycle, the state's Republican and Democratic candidates include both incumbents and challengers, though specific incumbent-versus-challenger breakdowns are not available in current FEC filings for direct comparison.

The fundraising gap between the two parties is substantial: Republicans have raised nearly four times as much as Democrats statewide.
