Funding profile

Analilia Mejia

Democrat · Representative for New Jersey’s 11th district

Career totals · 1 election · 20262026

$1.8 million

raised by Mejia’s campaigns, everything from the 2026 election added together.

18%

of it came from organized groups rather than from people giving on their own: at least $336,000 from PACs, plus donations that organizations collected and directed.

$477,000

was spent about Mejia by outside groups. These are ads for or against them that their campaign cannot control, and none of it is part of the money above.

Every number on this page comes from Federal Election Commission filings, read on August 24, 2026. An election still under way keeps raising money, so its figure will have grown since. Check Mejia on FEC.gov

Where the money came from

Everything Mejia’s campaigns have reported raising, split by who gave it.

Federal Election Commission filings across 1 election. Percentages may not total 100 because each is rounded.

Money bundled through organizations

Not every “individual” donation arrives on its own. An organization can collect checks from its members, already earmarked for Mejia, and deliver them in a bundle. The law counts that as individual money, but the organization still chose where it went.

$5,360

reached Mejia this way, <1% of everything they raised from individuals. Each donation came from a real person. The organization picked who got it.

  • JStreetPAC$5,360

We can only count the organizations we have measured, so the real figure could be higher than this, never lower. Bundling is legal and widely used, and appearing here is not evidence of wrongdoing.

Who gave the most

Committee contributions from the 2024 and 2026 election periods, grouped by how the FEC classifies each giver. This covers a slice of the career total, and giving to a campaign is legal and ordinary.

“Unclassified” means the FEC records no organization type for that committee, which usually means a leadership PAC. We show it as unclassified rather than guessing which industry it belongs to.

Money spent about this member

Outside groups, usually super PACs, may spend without limit on ads for or against a candidate, as long as they do not coordinate with the campaign. Mejia has no legal control over any of it.

This is not a donation. Nobody gave this money to Mejia. It was spent on advertising about Mejia, and money spent against a candidate is plainly not funding them. So it never gets added to the figures above.

$477,000

has been spent for or against Mejia by outside groups. $477,000 supported Mejia; $0 opposed Mejia.

Election by election

The career figures above are the sum of these elections. Each row links to the Commission’s page for that election, where the numbers match line for line.

ElectionRaisedFrom PACsOutside spending
2026in progress$1.8 million$331,000 18%$477,000

Raised is everything the campaign took in for that election. From PACs is the slice of it given by political action committees. Outside spending is what other groups spent on ads about the race, for and against—it is not part of “Raised”. An election marked in progress is still raising money, so its figures are not final.

We never publish the names of individual donors, and anything we cannot source stays off the page. The methodology explains every such choice.
