PATTERN

Vote-finance correlation

High confidence

Data through May 2026 · Sources: 2FEC individual filings (2026 cycle), Congress.gov roll calls (119th Congress) [168]

Garland Barr voted on 168 bills. Donations analyzed totaled $6,609,172.02. There is a weak positive pattern between donation amounts and yea rates. This means larger donations did not strongly predict voting yes.

Fewer than 5 other members of the KY House delegation have comparable data right now, so no peer comparison is shown.

This analysis shows factual patterns in public data. Campaign contributions are legal and do not indicate wrongdoing. Voting alignment with donor industries is common across all legislators. Correlation does not indicate causation or improper behavior.
