Who gives to each campaign, and where those donors live, for this election (since 2025). Cash the state lists donor-by-donor.

Steve Baier · Republican

No campaign committee found for this candidate, so their money is unknown — not zero. Search IECDB filings ↗

Method: itemized cash contributions (Schedule A, transaction type CON) since 2025-01-01, refunds netted, the committee's own account interest excluded. Each donor is placed by the state and 5-digit ZIP code on the filing. A ZIP code counts as in the district when at least 98% of its Iowa land area (Census ZCTA) falls inside it, as crossing the line when between 2% and 98% does, and as elsewhere in Iowa otherwise. Iowa ZIP codes with no Census area (post office boxes) are shown on their own. In-kind support and loans are never in either bar.
