Micheál O'Leary

I · U.S. House, TN-5 · not rated

Position

No documented position on Israel, Gaza or Palestine found. An Irish-born independent whom Ballotpedia identifies as a former Culver City, California, mayor, he runs a no-party-whip, no-corporate-money campaign and blames rising costs in the district on “a war Congress never approved” and on tariffs.

Why not rated

Not rated: no documented individual position on Israel and Palestine. His campaign site is a one-page sign-up form with no issues section, he has not completed Ballotpedia's 2026 survey or answered iVoterGuide’s 2026 questionnaire, and his Vote411 answers (district needs, costs, education, data centers) never mention Israel or Gaza; his objection to “a war Congress never approved” is about congressional authorization and prices. Unrated until a position is stated.
