THE TAKETrailAI · auto-generated
Goldman's fundraising profile is heavily weighted toward individual donors, who account for 92 percent of his $10.3 million total, with PACs and committees representing only 8 percent of contributions. Industry-tied money concentrates in legal services and finance sectors, with lawyers and lobbyists providing 32 percent of industry contributions and securities and investment firms providing 27 percent, a pattern reflected in his individual donor base where these same sectors predominate. His contribution profile shows minimal reliance on organized labor, party structures, or single-issue committees relative to his individual donor base.
