Small-Dollar Donors Raise $586 Million through ActBlue in Q2 2026, Best Non-Presidential Quarter on Record

ActBlue (press release) · back to the audit

Small-Dollar Donors Raise $586 Million through ActBlue in Q2 2026, Best Non-Presidential Quarter on Record. July 9, 2026.

Small-dollar donors raised $586 million for Democratic candidates, causes, and organizations in the second quarter of 2026.

This marks a 14 percent increase over the same quarter in the 2022 midterm cycle and the organization's best non-presidential period on record.

The record grassroots giving defies Republican attacks on the platform and was fueled by Supreme Court rulings and high-stakes primaries.

'Behind every one of these contributions is a person who refuses to sit on the sidelines' - CEO Regina Wallace-Jones.

$39 average contribution, 15 million total contributions, 573,000 first-time donors. $388 million for federal campaigns (up 34% from Q2 2022), $150 million for state/local races, and $48 million for charities.
