PAUL KERR FOR CONGRESS

What this employer-to-committee join measures

LobbyVault matches two FEC dimensions that usually live on separate hubs. On the employer side, itemized individual contributions are grouped by the employer string filers entered, here DAVLYN INVESTMENTS, totaling $5,771,307. On the recipient side, those same rows are filtered to committee C00650036, reported as PAUL KERR FOR CONGRESS, which received $5,729,016 of that employer grouping across 49 contributions. The $5,729,016 figure is the intersection, not a second dataset.

The dollar overlap is tight: $5,729,016 is about 99% of the $5,771,307 Davlyn Investments employer total. The remaining share of the employer grouping went to other committees and is not listed here. A high share does not prove a coordinated campaign, a bundled fundraiser, or that every Davlyn-linked donor intended the same outcome. It only shows how FEC itemized receipts coded to this employer string lined up against this committee ID.

Davlyn Investments in the FEC employer table

The industry hub for Davlyn Investments rolls up every itemized individual contribution whose employer field matches this label, regardless of which committee received the money. That national employer total is $5,771,307. Employer strings are filer-entered. Variants, abbreviations, and related entities can sit in other buckets, so this total is the labeled grouping, not a corporate org chart.

Because almost all of that labeled money is also on this committee join, reading the employer hub without the committee filter would still be dominated by PAUL KERR FOR CONGRESS receipts. The join exists so that relationship is explicit instead of inferred from a single list.
