THE TAKETrailAI · auto-generated
Mark Kelly's $136.4 million fundraising profile relies almost entirely on individual donors, with PACs and committees accounting for just 1 percent of contributions. Industry-tied contributions show concentration among lawyers and lobbyists (18 percent), health services (13 percent), and education (13 percent), a pattern reflected in the employment sectors of his individual donor base. With 116 votes recorded and one stock trade disclosure on file, his legislative activity and personal financial trading remain limited in the disclosed record.
