Political Contributions.

Identify Conflicts of Interest

A political contribution inquiry is a search for information about contributions made to candidates, political parties, and committees. This information can be used to track the flow of money in politics, identify potential conflicts of interest, and hold elected officials accountable.

You might want to utilize a political contribution search on a potential employee for several reasons, including conflicts of interest, to assess the potential employee's values and beliefs, or to identify potential security risks. The best way to conduct a political contribution search is to partner with a professional who has superior data.

Some databases utilized are maintained by the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and by state election officials, which are not public. A professional can also gain access to commercial databases that might otherwise be too expensive. A political contribution search needs to be conducted using the correct search keyword terms.

CI clients can customize their search parameters, making it simple to gather information about contributions made to a particular candidate. It should also be conducted for the correct period and correct level of government. All of these search parameters can be customized and adjusted with CI.

By conducting a political contribution search, you can help to ensure that you’re hiring employees who are honest, ethical, and who share your company's values.
