In addition to company-level estimates, we use these data to explore other related research topics, such as:
👉 How much political segregation is there in US workforce?
👉How do employees with different political beliefs react to corporate activism?
👉 How do different companies affect voting turnout?

But apart from survey data (high level) or information on political donations (helpful, but only cover a small % of people who make donations), there has never been publicly-available data on the partisan leaning of different companies

Many of us may have a sense that some industries and sectors lean more Republican or Democratic...

It looks like there is already a Stata MCP, for those who might want such a thing

For that matter, right now there are ~700k people per representative and GA has ~1.3m non-citizen residents, so MTG’s own state would likely lose at least one, maybe 2 reps?
