Barbara Carpenter on Election Wrld

Profile card for Barbara Carpenter

Post to

Spectrum

Centrist is the middle of the scale, not of Congress. How this works

By donors (CFscore, 2022 cycle)

Research estimate from Stanford DIME 4.0. Source

Matched by name only, so it could be the wrong person. Only 12 donors, so this is a weak read.

Method and limits

Published score −0.516 on a scale from −2.0 to 2.0, where 0 is the center. 12 donors. License: ODC-BY 1.0.

Places a candidate by who gave them money; candidates who share donors sit close together.

Reflects the donor network, not votes or views, and comes from past cycles, not a 2026 reading.
