THE TAKETrailAI · auto-generated
Baumgartner's fundraising profile relies predominantly on individual donors, who account for 78 percent of his $3.0 million total, with PACs and committees contributing 22 percent. His industry-tied donations show modest concentration across legal services, insurance, health services, construction, and real estate, each representing roughly 8-10 percent of industry money, while individual donors employed in law, health services, and real estate form a consistent donor base. With no stock trade disclosures on file and 59 recorded votes, his contribution pattern does not show pronounced dependence on any single economic sector.
