VERN BUCHANAN FOR CONGRESS

Thirty-one lines carrying nearly the whole employer book

Thirty-one itemized contributions totaling $5,214,144 average about $168,198 per line ($5,214,144 ÷ 31). That six-figure mean on a small line count is the opposite of a high-volume connected PAC. The packet does not name the 31 filers or say whether they are one household repeating.

The American Speedy Print grouping totals $5,226,744. VERN BUCHANAN FOR CONGRESS received about 99.8% of that grouping. Only about $12,600 remains with other committees ($5,226,744 − $5,214,144). For this employer string, the campaign cell and the industry hub are nearly the same dollar pile.

C00412759 is disclosed as VERN BUCHANAN FOR CONGRESS. This URL is American Speedy Print × that campaign. Near-complete overlap is a reporting pattern, not a finding that the print business directed the gifts.
