Federal Senate candidates file with the FEC. The fundraising figures here come from each committee's pre-runoff report, both covering activity through 2026-08-05: Ralph Norman for Senate reported $934,892 raised this cycle, including a $400,000 personal loan from Norman, against $237,339 cash on hand. Darline for Senate, registered July 23, reported $346,783 raised and $251,431 cash on hand over the same window, with no candidate self-funding. Outside spending has moved faster than either campaign in the week since the Aug. 11 primary: the super PACs Palmetto Action and Security is Strength PAC together reported about $1.4 million in independent expenditures opposing Norman, against roughly $13,000 in itemized spending supporting Graham over the same days. Palmetto Action is a super PAC registered May 13, 2026; through its most recent quarterly report, the large majority of its money came from other political committees rather than individual donors. Before the primary it had already disclosed about $701,730 in independent expenditures supporting Graham; it had not disclosed spending for or against Norman before the runoff.
