## 2026 outside money
On e-file receipt date **2026-10-26**, eight days before the general election, **[[DMFI PAC]]**
(FEC **C00710848**) disclosed **$1,999,145.00 supporting him**, on a single Schedule E line placed
through Midpoint Media LLC. Form 24 file **2042263**, expenditure date 2026-10-24, election code
`G2026`.
That was the largest single-candidate line on any Form 24 notice filed in the country that day, in any
race for either chamber.
**This site has no race file for AL-02 yet**, so the figure is recorded here and on [[DMFI PAC]].
