Bloomberg News analyzed contribution data from online political donation platforms ActBlue and WinRed to determine how employees from different industries and companies donated during the 2020 election.

Big banks, big tech companies, and big universities all donated heavily to Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, while blue-collar workers and the military donated more to President Donald Trump. The data contain contributions of less than $200.
