Outside this release

Statewide nonpartisan judicial elections held May 19, 2026, because they are not November general-election contests

Current report reconciliation and remaining election coverage

Next finance work must reconcile timed reports, source amendments and earlier filing years. The final printed general-election roster, county sample ballots, certified write-in list, and congressional, legislative, county and local contests also remain outside this guide.

Dataset comparison: Georgia's candidate cards use campaign-to-date PeachFile profile fields and separate FEC summaries. The financial-record explorer instead uses observed 2026 filing-year exports, which include older transaction dates and unresolved amendments. Do not combine these scopes or add recipient detail to parent payments. Loans, noncash support, returns and investment records remain separate. Missing data are not zero; records do not establish donor control.
