RNC Nears $100 Million War Chest Ahead of Midterms as Democrats Sink $3.5 Million Into the Red

The Republican National Committee (RNC) enters the 2026 midterms in strong financial shape.

The same cannot be said for the Democratic National Committee (DNC).

According to a report from The New York Times, the DNC currently has $14 million on hand but is carrying $17.5 million in debt, leaving the party roughly $3.5 million in the red.

Party leaders are said to be “privately alarmed” by the state of the finances.

By contrast, the RNC is sitting on a $95.1 million war chest and reports no debt.
