PROTECT OHIO VALUES PAC (POV PAC)

Businessman itemized gifts tagged to PROTECT OHIO VALUES PAC (POV PAC)

$15,000,000 requires both keys at once: employer/occupation grouping BUSINESSMAN, and recipient committee C00770495 disclosed as PROTECT OHIO VALUES PAC (POV PAC). LobbyVault keeps a Businessman industry hub and a PROTECT OHIO VALUES PAC (POV PAC) committee hub. Neither hub is this page. The industry hub lists every committee that received itemized gifts storing this grouping. The committee hub lists every industry string that gave to C00770495. This URL is only the intersection.

This page is a JOIN. One side is the filer-entered grouping Businessman. The other side is PROTECT OHIO VALUES PAC (POV PAC) on C00770495. $15,000,000 is what remains after both filters, across 152 itemized contributions. Opening only the Businessman hub restates $88,737,341. Opening only the committee hub restates every grouping that gave to C00770495. Adding those hubs together double-counts. BUSINESSMAN is an occupation grouping, not a firm. BUSINESS, BUSINESS OWNER, and BUSINESS WOMAN are other keys. PROTECT OHIO VALUES PAC (POV PAC) on C00770495 is the recipient label, including the parenthetical. 152 contributions produced the cell. Ohio in the committee name is not a geography filter on the donor side. Do not invent a roster of business owners.

Putting $88,737,341 in context

Businessman’s all-committee itemized book in this extract is $88,737,341 ($88.7 million). $15,000,000 is 16.9% of that book. The leftover $73,737,341 (83.1%) went to other committees under BUSINESSMAN, or sits outside this recipient filter. A large or small share still describes overlap of two FEC groupings, not a finding that people in this grouping preferred this committee as a bloc.

Take the committee filter off and BUSINESSMAN still shows $88,737,341 itemized. $15,000,000 is the slice tagged to C00770495. Open the Businessman hub for the remainder $73,737,341. Do not subtract by hand from a different extract dated on another night. The industry book is not a company budget and not a NAICS sector total.
