Little Rock Pine Bluff, AR, October 21, 2026 —

Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Hallie Shoffner reported raising more than $1.4 million in the third quarter, substantially more than incumbent Sen. Tom Cotton, who reported just under $500,000. Libertarian candidate Jeff Wadlin reported nearly $51,000 in receipts.

The figures show Shoffner leading the three candidates in reported fundraising for the quarter. Cotton’s total was below $500,000, while Wadlin’s receipts were nearly $51,000. The information provided does not specify whether the figures refer to contributions alone or include other types of campaign receipts.

The totals cover the third quarter, but the specific start and end dates for the reporting period were not provided. The information also does not identify the source of the figures, the date the reports were filed, or how much each campaign had on hand at the end of the quarter.

No breakdown of contributions by donor, spending totals, or changes from earlier quarters was included. The figures therefore provide a comparison of reported fundraising and receipts for the period, but do not show how the campaigns’ overall financial positions compare beyond those amounts.

Shoffner is identified as the Democratic candidate, Cotton as the incumbent senator, and Wadlin as the Libertarian candidate. Further details about the campaigns, the race, or the fundraising reports were not provided.
