Campaign filings show Rep. Matsui with a massive cash advantage

Campaign finance filings by Congressmember Doris Matsui show she has a massive campaign cash advantage compared to three other candidates vying in the June 2026 California primary for California's 7th Congressional District.

According to a report filed with the Federal Election Commission. Ms. Matsui maintains a cash balance of $617,161. The most recent report covering the first three quarters of 2025, ending September 30, showed that the longtime Sacramento area representative received $152,103 for the quarter.  

Among Matsui's notable local contributions during 2025 are the following:

Angelo G. Tsakopoulus (Sacramento area real estate developer) - $1,000

Matthew Keasling (attorney for Summer Villas project) 0 $250

Kevin Nagles (co-owner Sac Republic FC) - $3,500

Barry Broome - $1,000 (see video below)

Roger Dickinson (Sacramento City Council member) - $500

Among the large national entities that have contributed during 2025 are the following:

EchoStar Corp. - $5,000

Employees of Northup Gruman PAC - $5,000

Cox Enterprises - $2,500

Blue Shield of California - $5,000

PG&E Employees PAC - $5,000

WalMart - $1,000

Alexion Pharmaceuticals - $1,000

Array Digital Infrascuture - $5,000

Given that Matsui received most of the contributions before her main opponent, Sacramento City Councilmember and fellow Democrat Mai Vang, announced her candidacy, she will undoubtedly ramp up fundraising efforts in an effort to overwhelm her more spirited opponent.
