Who holds it now
Left–right placement
Moderately right, from the giving patterns of their campaign donors (DIME campaign-finance score, Stanford). Based on the 9 donors to their 2020 campaign for governor. DIME doesn't name donors: it places each one by everyone they give to, then places the candidate by their donors Source
