Candidate Rankings

Smith with $5.26 million in total receipts, Ann L. Wagner with $3.52 million in total receipts, and Wesley Bell with $3.56 million in total receipts.
Wagner, the Republican incumbent in Grant's district, holds a commanding cash-on-hand advantage of $4.23 million heading into the race. All Missouri federal candidates combined have raised approximately $19.7 million for the 2026 cycle; Grant's share of that total is zero based on current filings.
Incumbents vs. Challengers
Missouri campaign finance 2026 data shows a stark fundraising gap between incumbents and challengers. Seven Missouri incumbents with FEC filings have raised a combined $13.6 million, while challengers and open-seat candidates have raised a fraction of that, with most reporting well under $1 million each. This gap underscores the financial advantage that sitting members of Congress maintain in House candidate fundraising reports heading into the 2026 federal election donations cycle.
