Chellie Pingree voted on 166 bills. She received $713,707.77 in donations. There is a negligible pattern between donation amounts and yea rates. This means donations did not strongly relate to how she voted. Top sectors that donated include Agribusiness, Defense, and Finance/Insurance/Real Estate. Pingree voted yea on 25% of Agribusiness bills, 45.5% of Defense bills, and 52.4% of Finance/Insurance/Real Estate bills.

Fewer than 5 other members of the ME 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.
