Abstract

This work aims to investigate the impact of campaign contributions on the value of the contracts with the federal public sector earned by donors. In addition, it seeks to incorporate to the lobby literature an original contribution: analyzing the interaction among companies in performing campaign contributions to candidates for federal office using spatial econometrics in a non-geographical context. The results of the basic model indicate that the total elasticity of the value of contracts to campaign contributions reaches 0.95%, well above the 0.03% estimated by OLS. Therefore, the interaction among companies accounts for most of the benefits earned by donors from campaign contributions.
