Calculation Methodology

Contract values are summed from documented money flow chains where this entity appears as a source or destination node. Amounts are drawn from USASpending.gov, FEC filings, SEC EDGAR, or LD-2 lobbying registrations.

Donor contributions aggregate documented amounts from the donor_interests table, sourced from FEC individual and PAC contribution filings.

Connected officials are elected officials in our database with a mapped relationship (lobbying, board membership, campaign contribution, etc.) to this entity.

Annualised flow represents the total documented dollar amount traced through money flow hops involving this entity. Where hop-level amounts are unavailable, the chain-level documented total is used as a conservative upper bound.

All figures are drawn from public filings. Estimates are conservative — undisclosed transactions, dark money, and vanish-point hops are excluded from totals. This is a minimum documented floor, not a ceiling.

✓ verified Pending Review [constituency_baseline] District summary: Minnesota's 8th Congressional District covers the northeastern portion of the state, anchored by Duluth and encompassing the Iron Range mining region. The district is predominantly rural (61.5%) with a population of approximately 727,000. Historically a Democratic stronghold due to labor union presence in mining, the district has trended Republican in recent federal elections, with a Cook PVI of R+7 as of 2026. Key economic drivers include mining (iron ore, proposed copper-nickel), forestry, tourism, and healthcare.

✓ verified AI Inference Voted yea_unverified on H.R.2882 (Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024) on 2024-02-05: This omnibus spending bill included provisions affecting mining regulations in Minnesota's 8th district, where sulfide-ore copper mining near the Boundary Waters is a contentious constituent issue; the bill's passage aligned with donor interests in extractive industries while potentially conflicting with environmental priorities of outdoor-recreation-dependent constituents.
